Meld je aan bij LibraryThing om erachter te komen of je dit boek goed zult vinden. Op dit moment geen Discussie gesprekken over dit boek. I've listened to this before, in a book of short stories. Weighing in at ~ 45 minutes, it has enough heft to develop its characters and themes. A young man decides to get away from it all and go to a distant village, taking a deserted house with a bad reputation. While he is working at night, he hears rats scurrying in the house walls. They and him get used to each other, but there's this one big rat that is different. According to the local lady who comes in to do for him, it is the devil, and so we can look at that as the cause of what happens next. What the student sees, or thinks he sees does nothing to dispel the house's bad reputation. It's inventive, but I;d not want to read it at night... ( ) La Casa del Juez es uno de los relatos de fantasmas más impresionantes del período victoriano y uno de los menos conocidos dentro de la obra de Bram Stoker. Tal vez opacados por su obra cumbre, Drácula, el resto de los relatos de este autor quedaron destinados a lecturas menos masivas. Sin embargo, La Casa del Juez, como otras varias, es una historia escalofriante y un logradísimo exponente del género. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

Abraham "Bram" Stoker was a Victorian Irish writer. He moved to London and became the business manager for Irving's Lyceum Theatre, a post he held for 27 years. He also wrote novels and short stories to supplement his income. Stoker is best remembered as the author of the hugely influential horror novel Dracula. However, he also penned a number of chilling horror and supernatural short stories. This tale contains elements of both and is one of his best. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
