Conversations - The Book Graveyard
Sunday, 16 November, 2025
In this month’s installment of Guide to Gothics, Paperback Warrior teams up once again with Nick Anderson of The Book Graveyard to unearth a paperback relic: Dorothy Daniel’s The Tormented, a 1969 gothic suspense novel from Paperback Library. The book was successful enough to warrant two printings, one in 1971 and another in 1974. Since then, this book has lingered for decades in the shadowy corners of vintage gothic collections.But does it earn its place among the genre’s atmospheric greats?Together, we dissect the novel through our Gothic Litmus Test.
