Amazon.com description: Product Description:
"A ravishing little romance of the undead thatâs guaranteed to warm  and break  your heart, even as it chills your blood." - New York Times
A dark and visceral coming-of-age vampire love story, based on the acclaimed novel and film.
Oskar is a bullied, lonely, teenage boy living with his mother on a housing estate at the edge of town, when a spate of sinister killings rocks the neighborhood. Eli is the young girl who has just moved in next door. She doesnât go to school and never leaves the flat by day. Sensing in each other a kindred spirit, the two become devoted friends. What Oskar doesnât know is that Eli has been a teenager for a very long time.
Jack Thorne's adaptation of Let The Right One In premiered in June 2013 at the Dundee Rep Theatre in a production by the National Theatre of Scotland, before transferring to London's Royal Court Theatre in November 2013. It was the winner of the South Bank Sky Arts Award for Theatre, 2014.
