THE LANDMARK CLASSIC THAT USHERED IN THE ERA OF MODERN HORROR Now with a new introduction by Gillian Flynn, author of Gone Girl. Rosemary Woodhouse and her aspiring-actor husband Guy are thrilled to move into the Bramford, a sought-after Manhattan apartment building prized for its Victorian detail and charm - but accompanied by a sinister history. As they grow close to their overly-attentive neighbours, the Castevets, cracks begin to appear in the young couple's seemingly idyllic life. When Guy lands a breakthrough role, and Rosemary begins a long hoped-for pregnancy, everything seems to fall into place. But as the pregnancy takes unsettling turns, Rosemary begins to question whether the Castevets' attentions are more than just neighbourly - and whether Guy himself might be concealing a frightening truth. Are Rosemary's concerns real, or is she simply imagining a gathering malevolence? Is she 'going mad or going sane'? 'A darkly brilliant tale' - Truman Capote 'Ira Levin is the Swiss watchmaker of the suspense novel' - Stephen King 'There are books which document the culture and books that create it, and Rosemary's Baby is both' - Chuck Palahniuk, New York Times bestselling author of Fight Club
IRA LEVIN (1929-2007) created some of the most recognisable landmarks of popular culture, among them Rosemary's Baby, The Stepford Wives, The Boys from Brazil, and Deathtrap (Broadway's longest-running thriller, and one of its 10 longest-running plays). A playwright and novelist of uncanny versatility, Levin alternated between suspense, horror, comedy, drama, science fiction, even musical theatre - often setting lasting benchmarks in each genre, while also helping birth a staggering array of emergent subgenres, including modern, daylight, and feminist horror. Though his writing often held a mirror to society's enduring ills, Levin opposed works that preach, writing first and foremost to entertain - asserting 'I feel people are good enough that they deserve to be entertained', and that 'When you write something sheerly to entertain, that's making a moral point, too.'
