Titles in Collection & Description
In The Radleys, bestselling author Matt Haig delivers a witty, darkly humorous, and emotionally powerful novel about an ordinary suburban family with an extraordinary secret. At first glance, the Radleys seem like any other family living in a quiet English village. But beneath their seemingly normal lives lies something far more unusual—they are abstaining vampires, choosing to live without giving in to their bloodthirsty urges.
Parents Peter and Helen Radley have kept this secret from their teenage children, Rowan and Clara, in a bid to protect them from their own nature. But when Clara’s instincts are awakened in a moment of danger, the truth begins to unravel, and the family must confront who they really are.
The Radleys is a clever exploration of identity, repression, and family dynamics, blending supernatural elements with Haig’s trademark insight into human nature. Through moments of dark comedy and tender emotion, Haig examines the tension between desire and restraint, the challenges of fitting in, and the lengths people will go to protect the ones they love.
Both a gripping vampire story and a poignant family drama, The Radleys is a fresh and imaginative take on what it means to live authentically, wrapped in a narrative that is as thrilling as it is thought-provoking. Ideal for readers of contemporary fiction with a supernatural twist, this novel is a unique, must-read exploration of family secrets and self-acceptance.
