Description
The Well by Catherine Chanter Catherine Chanter's debut novel is an astonishing tale of beauty and darkness. When Ruth Ardingly and her family first arrive at their new home, they are enchanted by its unique glory, but soon discover that the land comes with a terrible price. As Ruth struggles to explain why her farm flourishes while her neighbours' produce withers and dies, she becomes increasingly isolated and fearful of those around her. The Well is a gripping story about the consequences of desire and the power of nature. With assured prose and vivid imagery, Chanter weaves a tale that is both captivating and unsettling. As Ruth's paradise turns into a prison, Mark's dream becomes a recurring nightmare, and Lucien's playground becomes a grave, it becomes clear that nothing is as it seems. A haunting and atmospheric novel, The Well is a worthwhile read for fans of literary fiction.
