A review by yowlyy
Little Sister Death by William Gay
3.0
I loved the start, and the middle, but was disappointed by the ending, if we could call it that. It seems that he hasn't been finished, maybe because the ending was predictable?
What I loved most: the language, which made me slow down in reading it to savour every sentence; the descriptions, because of the language, and the evil touches that pop up when you don't necessarily expect it.
What I did not love: the characters...or like another reader put it, the only character, Binder, the writer, who shows up to be a selfish and unlikable person.
All in all, a good ghost story, which needs a proper finish. I am going to read more by this author, as it is clear that this book is not representative of his work.
