Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Graduate student Jeremy Freirs, cynical yet prone to daydreams, seeks to lose weight and catch up on Gothic literature in the secluded village of Gilead, New Jersey. Just 90 minutes from Manhattan, Gilead feels like a step back in time with its antique customs. For local farmers Sarr and Deborah Poroth, the summer brings a clash between their passionate natures and the strict tenets of their fundamentalist faith. Sarr's widowed mother, gifted with second sight, faces a frightening awakening she has long dreaded. Aspiring dancer Carol Conklin, a naive country girl navigating city life, experiences her first romance and secures a job with the seemingly kind Mr. Rosebottom. However, he harbors a sinister secret, known as the Old One. Unbeknownst to the villagers, he is aware of the invisible forces shaping their lives as they unknowingly move toward disaster. An ancient corruption stirs in the summer heat, threatening to unleash the Ceremonies—monstrous rites that promise devastation. As the plot unfolds like a deadly flower, a nightmare emerges, revealing the dark fate awaiting the unsuspecting community.
