Description
Writing the Uncanny explores how unsettling fiction transforms the familiar into something strange, ambiguous, and psychologically disturbing. Examining the techniques behind uncanny storytelling, it considers atmosphere, identity, memory, domestic spaces, and the tensions between reality and the imagination. Insightful and thought-provoking, the book offers readers a deeper understanding of why certain stories linger long after the final page—and how writers can create that distinctive sense of unease.
