From the peerless author of The Lottery & We Have Always Lived in the Castle this is a treasure trove of deliciously dark & funny stories essays lectures letters & drawings Let Me Tell You brings together the brilliantly eerie short stories Jackson is best known for with frank & inspiring lectures on writing; comic essays she wrote about her large rowdy family; & revelatory personal letters & drawings Jackson's landscape here is most frequently domestic
- dinner parties children's games & neighbourly gossip
- but one that is continually threatened & subverted in her unsettling inimitable prose This collection is the first opportunity to see Shirley Jackson's radically different modes of writing side by side revealing her to be a magnificent storyteller a sharp sly humorist & a powerful feminist' The stories range from sketches & anecdotes to complete & genuinely unsettling tales somewhat alarming & very creepy The whole of the book offers insights into the vagaries of her mind which was ruminant & generous For those of us whose imaginations & creative ambitions were ignited by ' The Lottery' Jackson remains one of the great practitioners of the literature of the darker impulses'
- Paul Theroux New York Times' Shirley Jackson made a reputation with a short story in 1948 Like a lot of people I read ' The Lottery' when I was young in an anthology of short stories from the New Yorker & never forgot it Let Me Tell You is a rich enjoyable compendium of her unpublished short fiction & occasional writings kicking off with a story of a dozen pages ' Paranoia' which I won't forget either'
