“Simmering with rage, propulsive and laugh out loud funny” (Catriona Ward), Victorian Psycho hacked its way into the hearts of readers and critics alike. In this gruesome tale, Winifred Notty arrives at Ensor House prepared to play the perfect governess. But long, listless days spent within the estate’s dreary confines come with an intimate knowledge of the perversions and pathetic preoccupations of the Pounds family, and Winifred struggles to stifle the violent compulsions of her past. Blissfully, Christmas is coming, and she has very special gifts planned for these dear, ugly souls…One of the most horrifyingly beloved novels of the year, Victorian Psycho “lives up to its literary namesakes, delivering unrelenting gore and shock” (Jac Jemc, New York Times Book Review) and affirming Virginia Feito as a master of the darkest craft.

In this astonishing debut, the venerable but gossipy New York literary scene is twisted into a claustrophobic fun house of paranoia, horror and wickedly dark humour. George March’s latest novel is a smash. No one is prouder than Mrs. March, his doting wife. But one morning, the shopkeeper of her favourite patisserie suggests that his protagonist is based on Mrs. March herself: “?‘But ... —isn't she ...’ Mrs. March leaned in and in almost a whisper said, ‘a whore?’?” Clutching her ostrich-leather pocketbook, she flees, that one casual remark destroying her belief that she knew everything about her husband—as well as herself. Suddenly, Mrs. March is hurled into a harrowing journey that builds to near psychosis, one that begins merely within the pages of a book but may uncover both a killer and the long-buried secrets of her past.

George March’s latest novel is a smash. No one could be prouder than his dutiful wife, Mrs. March, who revels in his accolades. A careful creature of routine and decorum, she lives a precariously controlled existence on the Upper East Side until one morning, when the shopkeeper of her favorite patisserie suggests that her husband’s latest protagonist—a detestable character named Johanna—is based on Mrs. March herself. Clutching her ostrich leather pocketbook and mint-colored gloves, she flees the shop. What could have merited this humiliation?That one casual remark robs Mrs. March of the belief that she knew everything about her husband—and herself—thus sending her on an increasingly paranoid journey that begins within the pages of a book. While snooping in George’s office, Mrs. March finds a newspaper clipping about a missing woman. Did George have anything to do with her disappearance? He’s been going on a lot of “hunting trips” up north with his editor lately, leaving Mrs. March all alone at night with her tormented thoughts, and the cockroaches that have suddenly started to appear, and strange breathing noises . . . As she begins to decode her husband’s secrets, her deafening anxiety and fierce determination threaten everyone in her wake—including her stoic housekeeper, Martha, and her unobtrusive son, Jonathan, whom she loves so profoundly, when she remembers to love him at all.Combining a Hitchcockian sensibility with wickedly dark humor, Virginia Feito, a brilliantly talented and, at times, mischievous newcomer, offers a razor-sharp exploration of the fragility of identity. A mesmerizing novel of psychological suspense and casebook insecurity turned full-blown neurosis, Mrs. March will have you second-guessing your own seemingly familiar reflection in the mirror.

Virginia Feito’s Mrs. March was hailed as “a brilliant debut . . . [by] a writer who keeps pace with the grandees she invokes” (Sarah Ditum, Guardian)—from Daphne Du Maurier and Shirley Jackson to Patricia Highsmith. Now, Feito returns with her “silver-polish sentences and her eerie psychological acumen” (Constance Grady, Vox) to unleash an entirely new antihero on us all.Grim Wolds, England: Winifred Notty arrives at Ensor House prepared to play the perfect governess—she’ll dutifully tutor her charges, Drusilla and Andrew, tell them bedtime stories, and only joke about eating children. But long, listless days spent within the estate’s dreary confines come with an intimate knowledge of the perversions and pathetic preoccupations of the Pounds family—Mr. Pounds can’t keep his eyes off Winifred’s chest, and Mrs. Pounds takes a sickly pleasure in punishing Winifred for her husband’s wandering gaze. Compounded with her disdain for the entitled Pounds children, Winifred finds herself struggling at every turn to stifle the violent compulsions of her past. French tutoring and needlework are one way to pass the time, as is admiring the ugly portraits in the gallery . . . and creeping across the moonlit lawns. . . .Patience. Winifred must have patience, for Christmas is coming, and she has very special gifts planned for the dear souls of Ensor House. Brimming with sardonic wit and culminating in a shocking conclusion, Victorian Psycho plunges readers into the chilling mind of an iconic new literary psychopath.

Cel mai recent roman al lui George March are un succes extraordinar și nimeni nu se poate mândri mai tare decât soția lui. Devotată regulilor și aparențelor, doamna March duce o existență pedantă și privilegiată în lumea bună a New Yorkului, până într-o dimineață când patroana patiseriei preferate sugerează că protagonista romanului scris de soțul ei – un personaj detestabil pe nume Johanna – este inspirată de însăși doamna March. Șocată și umilită, doamna March, care nu știe mai mult de atât pentru că nu a citit cartea, își abandonează comanda și fuge în grabă din magazin. Dar lucrurile nu se opresc aici. Pornind de la un articol decupat dintr-un ziar pe care îl găsește în biroul lui George, doamna March este convinsă că soțul ei a comis o crimă.În timp ce narațiunea ne conduce, pas cu pas, prin delirul și psihozele doamnei March, implicațiile ei se ramifică și pătrund în zonele cele mai sensibile și mai intime ale vieții. Imaginea publică ia locul adevăratei identități a persoanei. Scenariile care se dezvoltă independent în imaginația noastră devin realitate.În romanul său de debut, Virginia Feito reușește să comprime o multitudine de idei și emoții într-o narațiune alertă și plină de tensiune.„O lectură esențială în era rețelelor de socializare… Un roman de debut excepțional… o contribuție excelentă la literatura din valul horror cu influențe feministe… Paranoia tulburătoare a doamnei March, credința că toată lumea o judecă, perspectiva înspăimântătoare că este văzută nu așa cum este, ci așa cum a fost portretizată de altcineva – toate acestea constituie coșmarul obișnuit al unei persoane disperate după un anumit statut în galeria de oglinzi din social media…“ The Guardian„Un thriller pervers, superb… Puțin din Hitchcock, puțin din Patricia Highsmith… Este o neliniște în cartea aceasta, o teamă chinuitoare care se instalează de la început și de care nu mai scapi. Și nici nu-ți dorești să scapi dintre frazele perfect șlefuite și straniile incursiuni psihologice.“ Vox
