EVERYDAY LIFE BECOMES A THING OF RARE ENCHANTMENT WHEN SHIRLEY JACKSON WEAVES HER SPELL
You might call them a typical American family. A father. A mother. Four children of assorted ages. All living in a house with a white picket fence and two gateposts (one of them crooked).
But when the family is Shirley Jackson's, and the children are Laurie, Jannie, Sally and Barry (you may remember them in their younger incarnations from Life Among The Savages) you can be sure that there is something very special about them.
Just how special you'll discover when you walk through those gateposts (one of them crooked) and see for yourself why this book is called RAISING DEMONS.
