Georgetown, Washington D.C., 1973. Actress and divorced mother Chris MacNeil starts to experience 'difficulties' with her usually sweet-natured eleven-year-old daughter Regan. The child becomes afflicted by spasms, convulsions and unsettling amnesiac episodes; these abruptly worsen into violent fits of appalling foul-mouthed curses, accompanied by physical mutation. Medical science is baffled by Regan's plight and, in her increasing despair, Chris turns to troubled priest and psychiatrist Damien Karras, who immediately recognises something profoundly malevolent in Regan's distorted fetures and speech. On Karras's recommendation, the Church summons Father Merrin, a specialist in the exorcism of demons . . .William Peter Blatty scripted this version of his own best-selling novel for director William Friedkin, and was rewarded with an Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay of 1973. This publication also includes the texts of the film's legendary 'lost scenes' and excised dialogue which shed additional light on The Exorcist's profound darkness.

This edition - published in 2014 - is Blatty's preferred version. Polished and expanded by him, the narrative included new dialogue, a new character and a new - and chilling - extended scene. It may be fifty-plus years since this classic novel was first published, but in that time it has lost none of its power to shock, thrill and terrify its readers.

1970-talets stora thrillerklassiker i ny utgåva
När elvaåriga Regan plötsligt drabbas av en obeskrivlig och fasansfull förändring står vetenskapen maktlös. Flickan är dotter till en framgångsrik skådespelerska i Washington, D. C., och en skakad men fast besluten grupp människor tvingas samarbeta för att försöka rädda henne från ett ofattbart öde. William Peter Blattys Exorcisten inspirerades av verkliga händelser kring ett fall av påstådd demonisk besatthet på 1940-talet. När romanen ursprungligen publicerades 1971 blev den ett litterärt fenomen och låg 57 veckor på New York Times bästsäljarlista, varav sjutton på förstaplatsen. Den adapterades kort därefter till en enormt populär film som fick tio Oscarsnomineringar. Med sin intensiva stämning och sitt medvetet råa språk är Exorcisten en milstolpe inom spänningslitteraturen. I svensk översättning av Anna Pyk.
