Occultation and Other Stories: And Other Stories de Laird Barron
I absolutely want to write something longer about this but it's insane how deeply every story here is suffused with horror at heterosexuality, even though I'm not sure the author realises it. It's really noticeable when you get to the best story in the book which is entirely about gay men and the only 2 women appear as dangerous interlopers that suddenly all the other stories got put in perspective for me. There's a heavy sense of gay anti natalism and het sex and the nuclear family as something that can only lead to horror. Idk if I'm reading too much into it but it just Makes Sense to me and after finding the first few stories a little disappointing when I got to Mysterium Tremendum which is an amazingly creepy and gay novella that suddenly everything clicked into place and I appreciated all the rest all the more. The story quality varied a bit but that one is great.… (més)
I've been waiting for this book to settle in my brain so I could give it the review it deserves but it just won't happen. This book was so many things; horror, time travel, a bit of science fiction, fantasy, even fairy tales. It's everything. And I loved it. It kept me up nights with its tension and gave me bad dreams to boot. And still I loved it.
The Beautiful Thing That Awaits Us All
Blackwood's Baby
4 🌟
I was prepared to hate this, it being about hunters, but at the end, it got me. A group of"hunters" goes to a hunting wilderness in Washington. I had to laugh, because a couple of them got some karma, but I wasn't prepared for the chaos.
The Redfield Girls
3 🌟
They're not girls, except for the niece of one of the women who are teachers at a junior high school in Washington. They go for an annual summer weekend trip, right before the start of school. This year, they choose to stay in a cabin by a haunted lake. Bad things happen.
