Reads like an experiment in style, making every description an opportunity for dragging horror (branches don't rustle, they creak; the moon doesn't shine, it glares; and so on) while all the characters are as realistic and dimensional as a placemat. Might have worked as a short story, but even a short novel was 175 pages too many. ( ) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

"Luke Arnold is a successful stage comedian who, with his partner Sophie Drew, is about to have their first child. Their life seems ideal and Luke feels that true happiness is finally within his grasp. This wasn't always the case. Growing up in a loving but dysfunctional family, Luke was a lonely little boy who never felt that he belonged. While his parents adored him, the whole family knew that due to a mix-up at the hospital, Luke wasn't their biological child. His parents did the best they could to make the lad feel special. But it was his beloved uncle Terence who Luke felt most close to, a man who enchanted (and frightened) the lad with tales of the "Other"--eldritch beings, hedge folks, and other fables of Celtic myth. When Terence dies in a freak accident, Luke suddenly begins to learn how little he really knew his uncle..."--Dust jacket. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
