Let Me Tell You: New Stories, Essays, and Other Writings

Unpublished works by famed author Shirley Jackson.

If you're intrigued by the human condition and enjoy literature that weaves everyday life with a touch of the uncanny, Shirley Jackson's "Let Me Tell You" is a treasure trove. It's a rare opportunity to delve into previously unreleased stories and essays that offer the same sharp wit and chilling undercurrents you'd expect from the author of "The Haunting of Hill House." You'll get to peer behind the curtain of Jackson's mind, making each page a discovery of her mastery over the short form.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
