Description: GHOST STORYPeter StraubCoward, McCann & Geoghegan, Inc., New York, 1979, First EditionHardcover, very good condition, dust jacket, not price clipped, is very good, with some minor edge wearIn a seedy motel in Florida, a young man holds captive a little girl in a soiled pink dress. He is anxious, tormented, introspective. She is calm, passive, strangely detached. She says her name is Angie Maule.In the small upstate town of Milburn, New York, four old friends meet to honor the traditions of the Chowder Society. They drink good whiskey and trade ghost stories. As chilling as these tales are, and as strangely prophetic, they pale before the horrific nightmares that began a year ago when one of their members attended a party for a visiting actress - and there died of a heart attack. Or was it fright? Ask the actress. She says her name is Ann-Veronica Moore.In California, a talented young novelist teaching creative writing at Berkeley finds himself hopelessly obsessed with on of his students. She is exquisitely lovely, infernally elusive. She says her name is Alma Mobley.What is the connection between these places, these people, these agonizing events?Once in a decade, perhaps less often, a novel so clearly breaks the mold of a particular genre that its appearance becomes a publishing event. Ghost Story, by Peter Straub, is such a novel.
