[书籍内容/Book Description]

一个杀人犯，一个疯子，一个同情外部丰富世界的人，三人奇迹般地同住一所屋檐下的故事。

姐姐异常敏感、胆怯，连房门也不敢迈出；妹妹表面天真活泼，实则内心阴暗，幻想可以和死神沟通，是一个顽固又狡黠的恶作剧者。她们和精神病患者叔叔住在小镇的一座“夏宫”里，几乎与世隔绝，这座宫殿饱受人们的议论和诋毁，也被认为藏有大量黄金和珍宝。曾经，这座豪华的宅子里有威严的父亲、漂亮的母亲、可爱的弟弟以及叔叔、婶婶等一家，好不热闹……然而，在一次晚餐，一大家子仅存三人……凶手是谁？而凶手杀人的动机更加令人咋舌……

Shirley Jackson's beloved gothic tale of a peculiar girl named Merricat and her family's dark secret

Taking readers deep into a labyrinth of dark neurosis, We Have Always Lived in the Castle is a deliciously unsettling novel about a perverse, isolated, and possibly murderous family and the struggle that ensues when a cousin arrives at their estate. This edition features a new introduction by Jonathan Lethem.
