β¦ Synopsis
Hailed as the first modern psychological thriller, The Collector is the internationally bestselling novel that catapulted John Fowles into the front rank of contemporary novelists. This classic tale of obsessive love remains unparalleled in its power to startle and mesmerize.
Frederick Clegg appears to be an ordinary, slightly shabby clerk. Winning a fortune in the lottery, he buys a remote country house, and goes about furnishing it with everything he thinks a beautiful woman could desire. He then abducts the beautiful young art student that he has worshiped from afar, imprisoning her in the cellar amid his butterfly collection with tragic, electrifying results.
