Reseña del libro "The Raven (en Inglés)"
As illness tightens its grip, something darker begins to stir. England, 1665. As plague ravages London and fear spreads north to York, Martin Blake, a humble cobbler, struggles to protect his family through a bitter, death-shadowed winter. When the parish rector, his wife’s domineering uncle, forces orphaned children from London into their already meager home, Martin’s fragile world begins to unravel. Grief, illness, and the weight of buried sins close in. Ravens gather. Martin’s reason begins to slip. Whispers spread—of misused alms, of spirits that roam at night, of faith twisted into something monstrous. As snow blankets the land and the dead lie unburied, Martin must confront a chilling truth: is he haunted by guilt, or by something far more sinister? A gothic tale of illness, obsession, and the perilous border between loyalty and madness. Praise for The Raven: “A distinctive period work that blends the mystical with the ugly side of the human spirit... a truly compelling read." —The BookLife Prize "A ghost story that asks how far a man will go for his family . . . both violent and symbolic, landing with a poetic finality.”—Kirkus Reviews “Susan McCauley's The Raven is a bubbling brew of dread and tragedy, history and folklore, and you'll be entranced from the first sip." —Lisa Morton, seven-time Bram Stoker Award® winner "Hauntingly beautiful with its prose, The Raven is a gothic forest masterpiece worth escaping into!"—Rena Mason, three-time Bram Stoker Award® winning author
