Summary
Chris, Cathy, and the twins are to be kept hidden until their grandfather dies so that their mother will receive a sizeable inheritance; however, years pass and terrifying things occur as the four children grow up in their one room prison.
Amazon.com description: Product Description: Nominada por los estadounidenses como una de las 100 mejores novelas en la serie de PBS The Great American Read
El libro en que el se basa la exitosa adaptación televisiva Flores en el ático, un best seller clásico sobre la terrible experiencia vivida por cuatro niños que crecen en un lúgubre encierro, aislados del mundo...
Desde su publicación en inglés en 1979, Flores en el ático se convirtió en un fulminante best seller y fue adaptada al cine con gran éxito.
Corre el año 1957, y los Dollanganger parecen una familia perfecta que vive sin preocupaciones en su idílica casa de Gladstone, Pensilvania... hasta que la tragedia llama a su puerta. Ocurre el día en que Christopher, el patriarca de la familia, muere en un accidente. Su viuda, Corrine, debe hacer frente al peso de una gran deuda que no puede asumir. Su única opción: regresar a la mansión de sus acaudalados padres en busca de ayuda. Su madre, Olivia Foxworth, la acoge bajo la cruel condición de que los niños se escondan en el desván.
De esta forma empieza el tormento de los hermanos Dollanganger -Cathy, Chris y los gemelos Carrie y Cory-, víctimas inocentes de pasiones prohibidas y condenados a vivir aislados del mundo.
La crítica ha dicho...
«Bello, macabro y meticulosamente cruel... Evoca el lado más oscuro de cuentos como La caperucita roja o Hansel y Gretel con un toque victoriano.»
