Wieland (1798) is a novel by American author Charles Brockden
Brown. Considered the first American Gothic novel, this a story of
psychological horror and occult mystery based on the real-life
James Yates Murders. The novel follows the Wieland family, whose
father immigrated to the American colonies prior to the
Revolutionary War in order to found a fanatical religious sect.
Following his mysterious death, his children attempt to build
normal, prosperous lives-Theodore marries his sister's childhood
friend Catharine Pleyel, and together they have four children,
while Clara begins to imagine a life with Henry, Catharine's
brother. After several years, however, they begin to hear voices
compelling them to do bizarre and terrible things. Amidst this
inexplicable terror, a man named Carwin-who has the gift of
multiple voices-appears, changing their lives forever. Wieland by
Charles Brockden Brown is a masterpiece of horror and Gothic
fiction with emotional depth and psychological intensity, and
remains a landmark work of American literature. With a beautifully
designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition
of Charles Brockden Brown's Wieland is a classic of American
literature reimagined for modern readers.
