Items related to Castle
Eric Loesch, a private man with a shadowy past, returns to his hometown in rural New York where he purchases a dilapidated house that he begins to renovate with steely determination. The adjacent woods on the property seem to beckon him and he soon discovers a gothic castle at the centre of his land that he appears not to own. As Loesch looks for an explanation, the reader is drawn into a taut and mesmerising story that reveals a great deal not just about one man's past, but about America's recent military adventures.

Review:
About the Author:
"[This] slow-burning work turns into a quickly moving page turner, morphing into a brilliant, classical, psychological horror story that sticks to and gnaws at the bones. Comparisons to Jack London or Hemingway are obvious, but in Loesch, Lennon has invented his own dark-burning mythology." --Jeff Baker, The Oregonian
"Lennon displays an expert ability to fracture his narrator's iron resolve with a steady series of disquieting revelations." --LAURA STOKES, Bookforum
"It's only natural for novels to portray this chaotic moment in history, but few will tackle that task with the complexity and eeriness of [Castle] . . . [A] virtuoso performance." --WILLIAM J. COBB, The Dallas Morning News
J . ROBERT LENNON is the author of six novels and a story collection, Pieces for the Left Hand. His fiction has appeared in The Paris Review, Granta, Harper's Magazine, Playboy, and The New Yorker. He lives in Ithaca, New York.
