Free USA Shipping >>>> Rosemary's Baby is a 1967 horror novel by American writer Ira Levin; it was his second published book. It was the best-selling horror novel of the 1960s, selling over four million copies. The high popularity of the novel was a catalyst for a "horror boom", and horror fiction would achieve enormous commercial success in its wake. Cherry Wilder wrote that "Rosemary's Baby is one of the most perfectly crafted thrillers ever written". Horror scholar Gary Crawford described Rosemary's Baby as "a genuine masterpiece". David Pringle described Rosemary's Baby as "this sly, seductive impeccably-written horror novel ... is an expertly constructed story, a playwright's book, in which every physical detail and line of dialogue counts." Thirty years later Levin published a sequel to the novel, titled Son of Rosemary (1997). Levin dedicated it to Mia Farrow. In 1968, the novel was adapted as a film of the same name, starring Mia Farrow, with John Cassavetes as Guy. Ruth Gordon, who played Minnie Castevet, won an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress. Roman Polanski, who wrote and directed the film, was nominated for Best Writing, Screenplay Based on Material from Another Medium. The exterior shots of the fictional Bramford apartment were filmed at the Dakota on Central Park West in New York. A television film sequel to the Polanski film, Look What's Happened to Rosemary's Baby, was produced in 1976. In 2014, the novel was adapted as an NBC television miniseries, with Zoe Saldaña as Rosemary. The two-part miniseries aired on Mother's Day of that year. Neither the TV sequel nor the TV miniseries garnered critical acclaim. Paramount produced a prequel titled Apartment 7A, starring Julia Garner and Dianne Wiest.
