Stylized, surrealist weirdness makes excellent set-dressing for the relentlessly serious. Nothing about the novella makes anything like sense, but it's very pretty and at the same time gruesome, which is the best kind of pretty.

This might be my favorite book of the year!  Don't read if you can't take many, MANY curse words.
