About this book

This tale of obsessive love—the story of a lonely clerk who collects butterflies and of the beautiful young art student who is his ultimate quarry—remains unparalleled in its power to startle and mesmerize. "A superb novel ... Evil has seldom been so sinister." —Time "A bravura first novel ... As a horror story, this book is a remarkable tour de force." —New Yorker
