The Siege of Trencher's Farm (1969) is a psychological horror/thriller novel by Scottish author Gordon Williams. It was first published by Secker & Warburg, and is better known for the 1971 film adaptation Straw Dogs (starring Dustin Hoffman) by Sam Peckinpah. A 2011 remake of that film under the same name was made to less favourable reviews, both films bearing little resemblance to the novel. The Siege of Trencher's Farm was republished by Titan Books as in 2011 as Straw Dogs, to coincide with the release of the remake.[1]
