The Whisperer in Darkness (Academic Edition)

Meer over het boek

Set against the backdrop of rural Vermont post-1917 floods, the story delves into the eerie reports of strange, sponge-like life-forms in a river. Albert Wilmarth, a literature professor and folklore expert, initially dismisses these claims as the product of local superstition and confusion over storm debris. As the narrative unfolds, the tension between skepticism and the unknown grows, exploring themes of fear, belief, and the clash between rationality and the supernatural.
