V. C. Andrews

Cleo Virginia Andrews, better known as V. C. Andrews or Virginia C. Andrews, was one of the most popular American novelists of the twentieth century. Andrews's novels combine Gothic horror and family saga, revolving around family secrets and forbidden love (frequently involving themes of horrific events, and sometimes including a rags-to-riches story). Her best-known novel is the bestseller FLOWERS IN THE ATTIC (1979), a tale of four children smuggled into the attic of their wealthy estranged pious grandmother, and held prisoner there by their mother.

    By Allegra Goodman

    The first and second books were a gift to me for my thirteenth birthday and I read both books in a week. I am in love with these books, even though all the tragedy and death were kinda depressing, its what made the book amazing. And then when Julian died I almost cried but that just proves its a good book. I highly recommend it to anyone who likes deep stories that keep you on your feet

      According to Andrews, THE ATTIC manuscript was returned with the suggestion that she "spice up" and expand the story. In later interviews, Andrews claims to have made the necessary revisions in a single night. Yet this is undoubtedly when she says she decided to just let go and penned some of the more salacious scenes and paragraphs, which became something of a hallmark and proved an instant popular success, reaching the top of the bestseller lists in only two weeks
