The Little Stranger

The Little Stranger

Sarah Waters, 2010

Overview

In the quiet, post-war countryside of Warwickshire, a physician is summoned to the isolated Hundreds Hall. This Georgian estate, once a symbol of grandeur, has fallen into disrepair, mirroring the struggles of its last inhabitants: a mother, son, and daughter. As the house crumbles and its gardens overgrow, the family grapples with more than just a fading way of life. Dr. Faraday finds himself drawn into their story in ways he could never have anticipated, facing a darkness far more profound than he imagined.
