The Tenant
Roland Torpor
Introduction by Thomas Ligotti
Cover Image: Roland Torpor
L Originally published in France in 1964, "The Tenant" chronicles a harrowing, fascinating descent into madness as the pathologically alienated Trelkovsky is subsumed into Simone Choule, an enigmatic suicide whose presence saturates his new apartment. Much more than a tale of possession, the novel probes disturbing depths of guilt, paranoia, and sexual obsession with an unsparing, almost clinical detachment. This densely textured work was brillantly adapted for the screen by Roman Polanski in 1976.
