The Stepford Wives: Introduction by Chuck Palanhiuk
Autor Ira Levinen Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 iul 2011
All the beautiful people live in idyllic Stepford, Connecticut, an affluent, suburban Eden populated with successful, satisfied hubbies and beautiful, dutiful wives. For Joanna Eberhart, newly arrived with her husband and two children, it all seems too good to be true - from the sweet Welcome Wagon lady to all those cheerful, friendly faces in the supermarket checkout lines.
But just beneath the town's flawless surface, something is sordid and wrong - something abominable with roots in the local Men's Association. And it may already be too late for Joanna to save herself from being devoured by Stepford's hideous perfection.

Recenzii
'Levin is the Swiss watchmaker of the suspense novel
A glorious read
There is a broad current of humor beneath the horrific surface of this little ambush of Women's Lib, life and the pursuit of happiness
Both crude and amusing.
Notă biografică
IRA LEVIN (1929-2007) created some of the most recognisable landmarks of popular culture, among them Rosemary's Baby, The Stepford Wives, The Boys from Brazil, and Deathtrap (Broadway's longest-running thriller, and one of its 10 longest-running plays).
A playwright and novelist of uncanny versatility, Levin alternated between suspense, horror, comedy, drama, science fiction, even musical theatre - often setting lasting benchmarks in each genre, while also helping birth a staggering array of emergent subgenres, including modern, daylight, and feminist horror.
Though his writing often held a mirror to society's enduring ills, Levin opposed works that preach, writing first and foremost to entertain - asserting 'I feel people are good enough that they deserve to be entertained', and that 'When you write something sheerly to entertain, that's making a moral point, too.'
