The Willows by Algernon Blackwood
5.0
For a book written in 1907, this was amazing!
I tend to struggle with some classics due to wordiness and getting to the point.
The Willows is a classic that I had to read regardless of my track record.
Earlier in the month, I read The Hollow Places by T. Kingfisher and she based the portal in that book to The Willows.
I can see why she did along with her love for this book.
Algernon Blackwood turned an ordinary canoe and camping trip along the Danube River into a horror induced nightmare.
It’s a twisted tale of willows creeping closer in the dark.
It’s a place in where the spiritual and physical dimension is thin and malevolent forces are all around.
Forces become stronger when you’re scared and is that pattering footsteps outside of your tent?
I’m glad I picked this one up and I’m definitely reading more by Blackwood in the future.
What an imagination this guy had!!
Looking at a willow tree is going to be a whole new experience for me!
