Description

A Maggot by John Fowles is an extraordinary work of fiction that explores the darker aspects of human nature. In 1736, five travellers embark on a perilous journey across Exmoor, only to become embroiled in a mysterious and violent web of events.

As they stop at a village inn for rest, they hear whispers of a man's execution and another person's disappearance. The story unfolds into a complex maze of rituals, revelations, and cryptic deeds, leading towards a startling vision at its centre.

This novel serves as a powerful exploration of the forces that drive human behaviour, weaving together elements of violence, sex, disguise, and terror to create a compelling narrative that will keep you engaged until the very end.
