The Little Stranger by Sarah Waters™/ Text / Bwayla Newton Sarah Waters is an undeniable literary talent. After the success of Tipping the Velvet, the Victorian period novel in which she boldly explored a lesbian relationship, it’s safe to say that in The Little Stranger Waters has crafted a modern classic. Poltergeists of the past seek vengeance on a postwar society, that (lack of the NHS aside) is becoming more like our own. Characters confined by their position in the old class hierarchy fail to heed the words of Betty, their 14 year old house ‘skivvy’ who is called to mop the blood and sweep the shards of glass as the unnatural unfolds around the opulent but decaying house. Waters’ narrator Dr Faraday remains determined to rationalise the chilling and gripping events that are unleashed, drawing the reader into the realms of the psychopathological and supernatural.
