Thanks, by the way, for your kind words about the post!Richardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01746599416342846897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1911087927983597831.post-4444021902811411802014-07-28T12:18:55.677-04:002014-07-28T12:18:55.677-04:00Rise, have you read Saer before?

"Disquieting" is a perfect description of the mood expertly established in the novel; little things like the sounds of a couple talking in the distance or of a car approaching or pulling away in the middle of the night become sources of anxiety given what we know is taking place offscreen so to speak.Richardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01746599416342846897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1911087927983597831.post-1410047482596840662014-07-28T02:58:58.260-04:002014-07-28T02:58:58.260-04:00I'm not familiar with this author at all, but ...I'm not familiar with this author at all, but like the sound of the hypnotic style of his writing.

How the details and images in the book only seem to indicate something in hindsight and in retrospect.Risehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17446964640160585194noreply@blogger.com
