ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
Роман "Ребенок Розмари" — классика хоррора — входит во все списки лучших триллеров. В этой истории нет привидений и монстров, но она по-настоящему пугает. Здесь ужас не в сверхъестественном, а в обыденном, что происходит прямо здесь и сейчас. И настоящим злом оказываются внешне приятные люди.
Добро пожаловать в Бремфорд, замечательный многоквартирный дом на окраине Центрального парка в Нью-Йорке. Здесь светлые просторные квартиры, милейшие соседи... И происходят очень странные вещи.
"Каждая книга Левина — шедевр построения сюжета. В романе саспенса Левин все равно что швейцарский хронометр, по сравнению с ним мы все — пятидолларовые часы, какие можно купить в магазинах, где продают вещи со скидкой", — это слова Стивена Кинга. Текст печатается с незначительными сокращениями и снабжен комментариями и словарем.

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
A chilling novel about our modern world, from the author of ‘Empire of the Sun’ and ‘Crash’.
Robert Maitland, a 35 year-old architect, is driving home from his London offices when a blow-out sends his speeding Jaguar hurtling out of control. Smashing through a temporary barrier he finds himself, dazed and disorientated, on a traffic island below three converging motorways. But when he tries to climb the embankment or flag-down a passing car for help it proves impossible - and he finds himself imprisoned on the concrete island. In this twisted version of ‘Robinson Crusoe’, Maitland must learn to survive - using only what he can find in his crashed car.
As in all Ballard’s best work ‘Concrete Island’ provides an unnerving study of our modern lives and world. With his alienating, ‘Ballardian’ view of normal events, this is a unique novel from one of the twentieth century’s finest writers.
This edition is part of a new commemorative series of Ballard’s works, featuring introduction ...
