«The Wish House» is Celia Rees's young adult novel, published by Pan MacMillan in hardcover (208 pages, in English).
Fifteen-year-old Richard spends the summer in South Wales and is fascinated by the Daltons, a bohemian family occupying the Wish House. Clio, daughter of the painter Jay, draws him into games inspired by Celtic myths, while her portraits, Jay's interest in Richard, and his wife's garden of poisonous plants point to dark secrets: perhaps his arrival was not accidental.
Originally published in 2005; the cover highlights that Celia Rees is also the author of Witch Child.
For young adult and adult readers seeking coming-of-age novels with mystery, romance, and historical background.
