Classic horror stories by one of masters of the form. Full of bonechilling tales, this collection includes 'The Birds,' the basis for the Alfred Hitchcock film of the same title, and other creepy classics.Daphne du Maurier wrote some of the most compelling and creepy novels of the twentieth century. In books like Rebecca, My Cousin Rachel, and Jamaica Inn she transformed the small dramas of everyday lifelove, grief, jealousyinto the stuff of nightmares. Less known, though no less powerful, are her short stories, in which she gave free rein to her imagination in narratives of unflagging suspense.Patrick McGraths revelatory new selection of du Mauriers stories shows her at her most chilling and most psychologically astute: a dead child reappears in the alleyways of Venice; routine eye surgery reveals the beast within to a meek housewife; nature revolts against mans abuse by turning a benign species into an annihilating force; a dalliance with a beautiful stranger offers something more dangerous than a broken heart. McGrath draws on the whole of du Mauriers long career and includes surprising discoveries together with famous stories like The Birds. Dont Look Now is a perfect introduction to a peerless storyteller.
