Description
'Deliciously sinister. It's almost impossible not to be seduced' Louise O'Neill
During your three years at Catherine House you will have no contact with those in the outside world.
Each of our students has been selected as someone who belongs here. You will give to Catherine and Catherine will give to you.
We will not let each other down.
Catherine House is a university like no other. Into its celebrated world steps Ines, a young woman who welcomes the school's isolation rather than its illustrious past. As the gates close and Ines finds herself beginning to be inevitably seduced by its magnetic power, she begins to realise the question isn't why she chose to come to Catherine House; but why Catherine House chose her.
'A brilliantly observed tale brimming with subtle malevolence' Irenosen Okojie
'Echoes of The Secret History and Never Let Me Go' Daily Mail
'Moody and evocative as a fever dream, Catherine House is the sort of book that wraps itself around your brain, drawing you closer with each hypnotic step' Washington Post

Catherine House by Elisabeth Thomas garners praise as a gothic, genre-bending novel that is both smart and spooky.

The book's atmospheric and hypnotic quality, combined with a profound exploration of depression and adolescent turmoil, creates a captivating and gripping read. It is lauded as an impressive and haunting debut.
