Ghost story [a Gab bag for book discussion groups]
"In life, not every sin goes unpunished. For four aging men in the terror-stricken town of Milburn, New York, an act inadvertently carried out in their youth has come back to haunt them. Now they are about to learn what happens to those who believe they can bury the past -- and get away with murder. Peter Straub's classic bestseller is a work of "superb horror" "(The Washington Post Book World) that, like any good ghost story, stands the test of time -- and conjures our darkest fears and nightmares."

"Un roman fantastique considérable tant pour sa longueur (sans longueurs) que pour la qualité des émotions d'horreur qu'il véhicule au long d'un récit admirablement dosé. On conçoit sans équivoque le succès qu'il a remporté dans les pays anglo-saxons où il se place dans la sombre lignée de Poe, de Stoker (##Dracula##) et même d'Henry James. Cette chronique d'une petite ville américaine envahie par d'obscurs événements du passé grouille d'un climat et de situations qui appréhendent et piègent le lecteur fasciné."
