» Andrew Neiderman, V.C. Andrews ghostwriter, by Adam Sternbergh, Culture Editor of the New York Times Magazine.
V.C. Andrews created an imensely popular series of gothic novels secretly adored by pre-teens and teenagers everywhere. Little did our parents know of the sex, incest, and dark violence lurking behind such titles as Heaven, Dawn, and of course, Flowers in the Attic. With rags-to-riches stories of stunning, intelligent girls tortured by the adult world, her novels whispered perversely to us, and only now are we prepared to talk about why. In detail.
Petals on the Wings of Forgotten Yesterday’s Shadow Angels in the Atticwill feature analysis, memoires, deconstructions and dramatizations of the disturbingly alluring world of V.C. Andrews from sharp, funny voices and no evil grandmothers.
