The Other by Thomas Tryon

5.0

So many twists and turns! The narrator and author lull you into a false sense of security that is ripped from under you as the novel progresses. It reminded me of the works of Shirley Jackson, Patricia Highsmith, and some Agatha Christie and I loved it. I delighted in the language and gothic tone of it as well as its thoughts on nostalgia, childhood, and the horror of the passage of time. So so good!
