What Happens at Night by Peter Cameron
5.0
dark emotional mysterious reflective sad tense medium-paced
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Cameron is an unparalleled master of prose, and we are lucky to have him. WHAT HAPPENS AT NIGHT is bizarre, dangerous, elegant. It feels as if you're dreaming it rather than reading it -  the experience is not one of a good dream, or a nightmare, but rather a strange and unsettling dream.
