So good.”—Zakiya Dalila Harris, author of The Other Black Girl“Ghosts of the past have also inspired one of the most rollicking, addictive novels I’ve read in years: The Southern Book Club’s Guide to Slaying Vampires by Grady Hendrix, a tale of housewives battling vampires that is sweetly painful, like hard candy that breaks a tooth.”—Danielle Trussoni for The New York Times Book Review“A delight...its incisive social commentary and meaningful character development make The Southern Book Club’s Guide to Slaying Vampires not just a palatable read for non-horror fans, but a winning one.”—USA Today, 3.5 out of 4 star review“Funny, gruesome, and wild, this rollicking novel from horror luminary Grady Hendrix is Desperate Housewives meets Dracula.”—Esquire“Delightful read that reads like Dracula set in the '90s American South....Perfect for fans of horror and real-life crime alike.”—Good Housekeeping“The novel is a charming testament to friendships and life's imperfections, with dashes of rot and savagery to earn its keep in horror literature....It's a rollercoaster [that] lands as a vampire story concreted in vileness and Southern charm.”—Fangoria“[Hendrix] remains excellent at staging page-turning sequences of excitement and anxiety...[and] a master of adding little details that fill in the landscape of his Southern-fried world.”—The A.V.

Fans of smart horror will sink their teeth into this one.”—Kirkus Reviews, starred review“Hendrix has masterfully blended the disaffected housewife trope with a terrifying vampire tale, and the anxiety and tension are palpable...a cheeky, spot-on pick for book clubs.”—Booklist, starred review

The Southern Bookclub’s Guide to Slaying Vampires
Patricia Campbells leven heeft nooit kleiner geleken. Haar man is te druk met zijn werk, haar kinderen hebben hun eigen levens, haar demente schoonmoeder heeft constante zorg nodig, en zelf loopt Patricia alleen maar achter de feiten aan. Het lichtpuntje is haar leesclub, een hecht groepje vrouwen die elkaar vinden in hun liefde voor true-crime en thrillers. Tijdens hun bijeenkomsten gaat het zowel over seriemoordenaars als het moederschap, hun huwelijk, en de buurtroddels. Aan dit voorspelbare leven komt een eind als Patricia James Harris ontmoet, een knappe vreemdeling die in de buurt is komen wonen om voor zijn zieke tante te zorgen, en die zich uiteindelijk bij hun leesclub aansluit. James is gevoelig en belezen, en hij bezorgt Patricia gevoelens die ze al jaren ontbeert. Maar iets aan hem klopt niet. Hij heeft geen bankrekening, hij komt overdag niet buiten, en Patricia’s schoonmoeder beweert bij hoog en bij laag dat ze hem kende toen zij nog een jong meisje was – onmogelijk. ‘Fantastisch… Het scherpzinnige commentaar en de sterke karakters maken dit ook voor niet-horrorfans een regelrechte aanrader!’ – USA Today ‘Hendrix strooit slim met verwijzingen naar vampierklassiekers, en zijn meesterschap in het oproepen van jarennegentignostalgie is de kers op de taart.’ – Kirkus Reviews

Stregoneria per ragazze ribelli
Le chiamano ragazze ribelli. Ragazze perdute. Ragazze cresciute troppo in fretta. Le mandano alla Wellwood House di St Augustine, in Florida, dove le madri nubili vengono tenute nascoste per partorire in segreto, dare i figli in adozione e, soprattutto, dimenticare. Come se nulla fosse mai accaduto. Fern ha quindici anni quando, nella soffocante estate del 1970, arriva alla Casa. È incinta, spaventata, e sola. Sotto l'occhio implacabile dell'austera Miss Wellwood, incontra una decina di ragazze nella sua stessa situazione. C'è Rose, una figlia dei fiori convinta di riuscire a trovare un modo per tenersi il bambino e fuggire in una comune. Zinnia, una giovane promessa della musica intenzionata a sposare il padre di suo figlio. E poi Holly, poco più di un'ombra, quattordici anni appena compiuti, silenziosa e incinta di non si sa chi. Ciò che mangiano, ciò di cui parlano, ogni singolo momento della loro giornata è rigidamente controllato dagli adulti che "sanno cos'è meglio per loro". Fino al giorno in cui Fern non incontra una bibliotecaria che le consegna un libro sulla stregoneria. E per la prima volta nella loro vita, le ragazze hanno in mano il potere. Ma il potere può creare e distruggere, e non è mai gratis. C'è sempre un prezzo... e di solito si paga col sangue. Dopo Come vendere una casa infestata e Gruppo sostegno ragazze sopravvissute, Grady Hendrix torna con un romanzo feroce e originalissimo che lo consacra tra i grandi maestri dell'horror contemporaneo.
