We Have Always Lived in the Castle
by Shirley Jackson
Paperback
146 pages
"We Have Always Lived in the Castle" is a novel written by Shirley Jackson, first published in 1962. The story is narrated by Mary Katherine "Merricat" Blackwood, an eccentric and unreliable narrator who lives with her sister Constance and their uncle Julian in a secluded mansion. The Blackwood family has become isolated from the surrounding village after a tragic incident years earlier, in which several family members were poisoned.
As the story unfolds, tensions rise within the Blackwood household when a distant relative, Charles, arrives, threatening the fragile balance of their lives. Merricat's quirky and unsettling perspective provides insight into the family's dynamics and the secrets hidden within the mansion's walls.
"We Have Always Lived in the Castle" is celebrated for its atmospheric setting, rich characterization, and exploration of themes such as isolation, paranoia, and the nature of evil. Shirley Jackson's masterful storytelling and psychological insight have cemented the novel's status as a classic of American literature.
