The Bird's Nest by Shirley Jackson

5.0

i want to pace myself when i read shirley jackson; she's only got so many novels and i fear the day when i have nothing new of hers to explore. but she doesn't write anything that's easy to set down! i think i liked this even better than We Have Always Lived in the Castle. she is simply a master of putting the reader directly inside of whatever strangeness she's cooking. i have many Thoughts on this one but nothing that's easily accessible yet. a masterpiece, is all i can say presently.
