The Collector - Softcover
From the author of THE MAGUS, a novel first published by Jonathan Cape in 1963. A withdrawn, unloved butterfly collector wins a fortune on the football pools, and this enables him to abduct a young art student and keep her in the cellar of his newly-bought home. She tries to understand her captor but becomes repulsed by his mentality.
