The Repairer for Reputations
Despre această carte audio
In a future America that feels eerily controlled, prosperous, and quietly altered, Hildred Castaigne walks the streets of New York with a secret he believes will reshape the world.
Recovered from a past injury and newly filled with ambition, Hildred becomes obsessed with a forbidden book—The King in Yellow—a work whispered to corrupt the mind of any who read beyond its opening act. From that moment on, reality begins to shift.
Under the influence of the mysterious Mr. Wilde—a man who claims to repair reputations for a price—Hildred constructs an elaborate vision of power, destiny, and royal inheritance. As his plans unfold, the line between truth and delusion fractures, revealing a chilling descent into madness where logic bends, identities distort, and unseen forces seem to press in from beyond comprehension.
Set against a haunting vision of New York—complete with the unsettling presence of the government-sanctioned Lethal Chamber—Robert W. Chambers crafts a story that is both intimate and cosmic, psychological and prophetic.
The Repairer of Reputations is the opening tale in the infamous The King in Yellow, a collection that has captivated—and disturbed—readers for generations.
A quiet unraveling.
A mind in collapse.
A world that may not be what it seems.
