Fritz Leiber: Conjure Wife, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Norman Saylor is a successful sociology professor-rational, skeptical, and devoted to empirical truth. When he discovers his wife Tansy has been practicing witchcraft to protect him, he demands she stop and destroy her charms. But Tansy's magic was real, and with her protections gone, Norman finds himself targeted by forces that move through faculty politics and suburban rituals. To survive, he must accept what his rationalism denied: beneath the mundane surface of academic life, a hidden war is being waged-and the women have always held the real power.

Fritz Leiber's first novel, Conjure Wife remains one of the twentieth century's most important works of supernatural horror-a foundational text by a writer who influenced everyone from Michael Moorcock and Harlan Ellison to Kelly Link and George R. R. Martin.
