Fury on Sunday. Illustrated
Richard Matheson’s Fury on Sunday is a tightly wound psychological thriller that delves into the mind of a man pushed beyond the limits of sanity. Known for his masterful storytelling and ability to tap into the human psyche, Matheson delivers an intense, fast-paced tale of obsession, vengeance, and emotional unraveling. The novel follows Vincent Radin, a mentally unstable pianist who escapes from a psychiatric institution with one goal: to exact revenge on the people he believes have betrayed him. As Radin cuts a violent path across a quiet Sunday, the story unfolds in real time, heightening the suspense and immersing the reader in his increasingly fractured perception of the world. His former lover, her new partner, and anyone who stands in his way become targets in a terrifying descent into madness. With sparse yet powerful prose, Matheson examines the fragile boundary between genius and insanity. Fury on Sunday explores themes of jealousy, identity, and the consequences of repression, all within the framework of a relentless chase. The tension never lets up, culminating in a haunting and unforgettable finale. Originally published in 1953, this early work showcases the raw power of Matheson’s talent, which would later make him a legend in science fiction, horror, and suspense. Fury on Sunday is a gripping novella-length thriller that holds its own against the genre’s best — a chilling portrait of a disturbed mind set loose in a world unprepared for his fury.
