Stewart,
I just came across the brilliant review you wrote on
Doctor Glas.
My, you are quite a wordsmith! I was particularly struck by
this portion of your final paragraph: "a fantastic slice of the gothic in a narrative that is, by turns, invigorating and horrific, and told with such succinctness that begs the question why so many modern novels contain so much fluff." Good point, and worded so exquisitely. Honestly, I read this passage at least three times, maybe more.
I just picked up my
hardcover
copy of
Doctor Glas
from the library yesterday. Can't wait to give it a read. Especially after reading your marvelous review, Stewart.
