On the verandah of a great New Orleans house, now faded, a mute and fragile
woman sits rocking. And THE WITCHING HOUR begins. . . .
Demonstrating once again her gift for spellbinding storytelling and the creation
of legend, Anne Rice makes real for us a great dynasty of witches - a family
given to poetry and incest, to murder and philosophy, a family that over
the ages is itself haunted by a powerful, dangerous, and seductive being. A
hypnotic novel of witchcraft and the occult through four centuries, THE WITCHING HOUR
could only have been written by the bestselling authour of Interview with the Vampire,
The Vampire Lestat, The Queen of the Damned and The Tale of the Body Theif.
