WOMAN AT THE WINDOW, THE
A lonely and vulnerable woman, confined to her home, sees something from her window that she shouldn't have seen. But no one believes her. A powerful and twisted story. An intense and very real protagonist. A sophisticated psychological thriller for the new millennium with the tense atmosphere and dark elegance of the best film noir classics. #1 on The New York Times for four weeks -- She doesn't know if she saw it or imagined it. Anna Fox lives alone, confined to her New York home, not daring to go out. She spends her days chatting with strangers, drinking wine (perhaps too much), watching old movies, remembering happy times... and spying on her neighbors. Then the Russells arrive in the neighborhood: a couple and their teenage son. The perfect family. Until one night Anna sees something from her window that she shouldn't have seen. Her whole world begins to crumble and her own secrets come to light. What did she see? And what did she imagine? Who is in danger? And who is manipulating everything? In this absolutely fascinating thriller, nothing and no one is what they seem. Tortuous, chilling, original and moving, The Woman in the Window is a sophisticated suspense novel that attracted attention even before it was published. Translation rights were sold into 38 languages and Fox began working on its adaptation to the big screen. It debuted at #1 on the New York Times bestseller list the week it went on sale - something that hadn't happened with a first novel by an unknown author in twelve years - and remained there for several weeks. It has received rave reviews from critics, other writers and American readers; an enthusiastic and well-deserved reception, which is repeated as it is published in new countries. |
