Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy, The-Holiday Ed.: And Other Stories by Tim Burton
5.0
A collection of macabre poems? Yes, please.
I'm a fan of Tim Burton, I know some have a differing opinion and that's fine, but don't @ me though because I love his work! It hasn't been until recently I started exploring his written work and let me tell you, I wasn't disappointed and the illustrations just hit.
The fact that there was never a happy ending and yet I simply loved each story says something about me, what exactly, I'm not sure yet.
Uniquely bizarre characters, warped sense of story told in verse, and a goofy type of gothic that just pleases me to no end. If you are a Burton fan, please pick this one up.
