The Woman in Black and Other Ghost Stories Avis

Praise for Susan Hill's ghost stories: 'Susan Hill is the grande dame of English supernatural fiction * Financial Times *
Part of the fear she conjures up is a sense that this could happen to anyone * Scotsman *
An assuredly chilling ghost story -- Sadie Jones * Guardian *
Possesses a timeless austerity ... the very simplicity of Hill's unveiling of her story in Dolly imposes an awful inevitability on the action ... suitably wintry atmospheric storytelling. * Spectator *
As accomplished and effective as the rest, not tired in the least even if there is a cunning formula at work ... Best read at night for full effect * Independent *
Perfectly creepy ... a real chiller * Saga *
Susan Hill is the queen of the traditional ghost story and this one has a beautifully crafted creepiness ... Superb and scary * The Times *
She is incontrovertibly, unarguably the best in the field -- Barry Forshaw * Independent *
Everything about this book is old-fashioned in the nicest possible way. The presentation is gorgeous, reminiscent of an Edwardian school prize, and Susan Hill's superb ghost stories are already classics ... Hill's descriptions are short but wonderfully vivid, and she knows exactly how to make the flesh creep. More than this, she knows the emotions that are powerful enough to linger after death. -- Kate Saunders * The Times *
The high priestess of spine-tingling supernatural fiction, Susan Hill is one of those writers who always grips and entertains. * Emerald Street *
An excellent collection * Sydney Morning Herald *
