The House of Windows - Old Dwarf - 10-01-2010 01:32 AM by John Langan Basically a chick has a few glasses of wine & talks for 260 pages without chapters.Ok I know it sounds like a total suck but it grabs you & at page 260 your exhausted. It's a psychological haunted house story (Belvedere House) of memory,malediction,loss & remorse.Dickens,Poe & Lovecraft together at last.The mutual torment of a father,son relationship that goes beyond death.Plus you get 3 endings. I picked this up as I love old weird house stories & creepy covers so I really had no idea what I was getting into.Frankly it drew me in & held me. OD RE: The House of Windows - Mater Tenebraum - 10-24-2010 01:58 PM OD passed this on to me & it's really weird.It just goes on & on I keep looking for a natural break but there aren't any. You just keep reading & reading as it holds your interest,it's a very unusual book. M RE: The House of Windows - Sarku - 10-25-2010 01:54 AM So it's recommended? I wonder what it would sound like on tape??? Hmmm... Start reading OD... |
