Starve Acre : The disturbing folk horror novel from the author of Barrowbeck

PRE-ORDER SALTWASH NOW: THE DISTURBING NEW NOVEL FROM ANDREW MICHAEL HURLEY 'An impeccable work of folk horror' Irish Times The worst thing possible has happened. Richard and Juliette Willoughby's son, Ewan, has died suddenly at the age of five. Convinced that the boy still lives on in some form, and desparate to make contact, Juliette seeks the help of the Beacons, a seemingly benevolent group of occultists. Whereas Ricahrd, an art historian, tries to blot out the pain of his grief by turning his attention to the field opposite their house, Starve Acre. Patiently he digs in the barren soil looking for the roots of a legendary oak tree but unearths something which ought to have remained buried. 'I will confidently predict that no reader will guess where it's heading... Hurley's ability to create a wold that's like ours in many ways and really not in many others is again on full display' The TimesAuthor: Hurley, Andrew Michael,author Contributors: Hurley, Andrew Michael,author Binding: paperback Number Of Pages: 256 Publication Date: Release Date: Languages: English,Published,English,Original Language,Englis Published/Release Date: 29 Oct 2020 Format: Paperback / softback Publisher/Studio/Brand: John Murray Press Author/Director/Artist: Andrew Michael Hurley Dimension (cm): 196x128x18 mm Package Dimension (cm): 20x197x129 mm Item Weight (g): 182 Package Weight (g): 180
