Apunta't a LibraryThing per saber si aquest llibre et pot agradar. No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra. Didn't add anything. It's a decent little something if you want a Peake fix. ( ) This is a story about Titus Groan in Gormenghast, some time before the events in Titus Alone It is, apparently, a children's book (novella, really: it's only 115 pages of relatively large-font type, with illustrations) but I'm not sure that most children would get it. I found it really atmospheric and creepy - not something to read as a bedtime story! It's a very worthy addition to the Gormenghast canon. Given Peake's iconic status as a book illustrator, P.J. Lynch was brave to provide illustrations to the master's work. While it would have been marvellous had Peake left his own artwork for the story, Lynch's illustrations are excellent and well complement the narrative tone. His drawing of the Lamb on page 54 of my edition is a chilling inversion of the Agnus Dei: it gives me goosepimples! Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya

The protagonist of Gormenghast, Titus Groan tires of his dreary palace life and escapes for adventure but he is captured by two unsavoury characters who present him to an even less savoury character in this intense classic gothic thriller. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
