You are invited to enter ten famous houses of fiction and to explore them at your leisure. A guide will lead you through rooms, passage ways and gardens familiar from the novels, pointing out details of particular interest as you pass. The houses, their interiors and locations are illustrated in full colour with accompanying line drawings and floor plans, highlighting the important scenes from the stories. You will be able to peer into Dorian Gray's house in Grosvenor Square and see the famous portrait; you will be shown round the eerie chapel of Castle Dracula; see the lavish partying at Gatsby's mansion at West Egg and look at the strange desolate chaos of Miss Havisham's house. You will also be given an insight into Manderley, Northanger Abbey, Howard's End, Thornfield Hall, the House of the Seven Gables and Baserville Hall. This fascinating book will appeal both to those coming to these classic stories for thefirst time and encourage others to re-read old favorites with this companion volume at their elbow.
