I Am Behind You - Tapa dura

"Nothing is as it first seems in John Ajvide Lindqvist's uncanny and utterly engrossing horror novel I Am Behind You....Lindqvist (Let the Right One In, Little Star) has been compared by several critics with Stephen King, and here it's easy to see why. Like the American horror master, Lindqvist draws characters with fascinating interiors and believable histories....Imaginative and complexly structured, I Am Behind You is an outstanding work of oddball, literary horror." -- Shelf Awarensess (starred review)

"In an exercise recalling Stephen King's Under the Dome (2009), Lindqvist, an author capable of imbuing
his terrifying tales with heavy doses of emotion, crash-lands characters into an absurd situation--and then
lets chaos reign...the results are chilling." --Booklist

"Ambitious." --Publishers Weekly

Four families wake up one morning in their trailer on an ordinary campsite. However, during the night something strange has happened. Everything outside the camping grounds has disappeared, and the world has been transformed into an endless expanse of grass. The sky is blue, but there is no sign of the sun; there are no trees, no flowers, no birds. And every radio plays nothing but the songs of sixties pop icon Peter Himmelstrand.

As the holiday-makers try to come to terms with what has happened, they are forced to confront their deepest fears and secret desires. Past events that each of them has tried to bury rise to the surface and take on terrifying physical forms. Can any of them find a way back to reality?
