Description: First edition. Jacket toned, top edge lightly foxed. 1982 Hard Cover. ix, [1], 202 pp. 8vo. "William Golding has divided this collection of short, or shortish, non-fiction pieces - his first since the publication of The Hot Gates in 1965 - into two sections. The first, "Places," ranges from Wiltshire and Winchester and Salisbury cathedrals, through Holland (the Dutch waterways), Greece (Delphi), and Egypt (in two guises, "inside" and "outside"), to Planet Earth itself; and the second, "Ideas," contains philosophical and critical reflections which include fascinating and illuminating discussions of the personal background to some of his own novels. After a long silence, William Golding, with two superb recent novels, Darkness Visible and Rites of Passage (for which he received the presitigious Booker Prize), has reestablished beyond question his place in the front rank of living creative writers. A Moving Target - the author's apt self-description - has been eagerly awaited by his innumerable admirers. With its wit, profundity, intelligence, and immensely wide variety, it will more than live up to their expectations.

One day, Charlie sees a man in the distance and becomes very excited. He runs over to see who the man is, but when he gets close, he realizes that the man is only a figure on a horse. The man disappears, and Charlie is never able to find out what he was doing there. Over time, the rumors about the family become more and more horrifying, and Charlie begins to fear for his safety. Eventually, Charlie learns the truth about the family- they are actually vampires- and he must fight to survive.
