Shelves: favorites, literary-fiction

The feeling I came away from The Tooth Fairy with was neither of happiness nor of satisfaction and, although it was a fairly dark story, neither was the feeling anything like despair. Somewhere between those points is some combination of recognition, rememberance, anticipation, and a sense of loss that make up the un-nameable feeling with which I connected with this book. This is a fairy tale and a coming of age story that combine beautifully to remind us of how much we lose and how much we gain...more

Is he horror? Is he fantasy? Or possibly `social surrealism'...?

What ever he is his stories are strange, magical and original and he fast becoming one of my favourite authors.

He likes to instill in the reader a feeling of lingering uneasiness …. ‘You come away from the book feeling your perception of the world has been just been knock slightly askew away from what you previously thought to be normal’ Graham refuses to come down on one side or the other of the ideas he presents in his novel, it is all about ambiguity and uncertainty

Sam, Clive and Terry are ordinary (ish) boys growing up in the 1960s until one day when Clive punches Sam in the mouth and knocks out a tooth. …Sam puts the tooth under his pillow at bedtime…as you do

He wakes up during the night and first lays eyes on the Tooth Fairy “oddly dressed and smelling of horse’s sweat and chamomile”.

Tinkerbelle this Fairy is not …it is an angry, bitter and viscous looking creature from nightmare.

Thus begins a strange, disturbing sometimes touching relationship with the Tooth Fairy as it dogs Sam’s footsteps through childhood and into adolescence.

The Tooth Fairy, whose appearance, mood and sex change constantly makes for a rather unpredictable, mercurial companion - sometimes protecting Sam other times tormenting him, bullying and threatening him and his family. The Fairy is a character in its own right with its own moods and emotions, jealously, lust, spite, anger and touching moments of tenderness. The author skilfully coveys the wild, unpredictable primeval nature of the Tooth Fairy.

Without the supernatural element, the adolescent adventures of Sam and his friends would have made a brilliantly funny ‘rites of passage’ novel…all petty vandalism (though making pipe bombs in your Dad’s shed is hardly petty), growing pains and awakening sexuality.

The novel is brilliantly structured, well characterised and entirely compelling and the elegant writing at times is almost prose with a whimsical and nostalgic tone.

This novel shows that horror fiction doesn’t not have to be high octane ‘gore splatter’ serial killing zombies but that it can be beautiful, compulsive, hilarious, tragic, magical and very, very funny …oh very, very rude!(less)

This is one of a series of books (by that I don't mean a "series by the same author" I mean a series of books by various authors that treads similar ground) that have followed the same track over the last several years. It's not a new idea, it's the idea of taking an "established" literary form and "flipping it". I've seen some "switched out" fairy tales that work very well and make good reads, I've also seen books that simply take old stories or folklore and instead of the "established lesson" usually taught in them we learn the way to live is to be a selfish, pushy, wisea**.

This takes the tooth fairy "myth" (a story that could be used to scare children anyway...a being the sneaks in and out of your bedroom without your knowledge) and tells a fairly sinister and definitely adult tale. I won't try to lay out the story or give the ending revelation, no spoilers her, but there are places here where the book veers very close to pedophilia, gives us several scenes of "boys/young men" discovering the joys of "self pleasuring", dances around what I suppose we'd call "childhood violence"... Don't be fooled by the title and let a "juvenile reader" near this one.

Personally I find that the glow is off the idea of taking childhood stories and making them into R to NC17 rated fiction. Worse I didn't find the story itself involving enough to make these scenes a part of the telling. From Terry Pratchett and his tooth fairy with pliers to a short story I read some years ago about a tooth fairy who carved teeth out of mouths to use in magic, this is not truly an original idea and not a standout in story telling.

I know many of you enjoyed it greatly, and for you I'm happy. But as I've said about other books, not for me. I brought the rating up to 2 stars as I've read far worse and don't want to rate the book down with the truly terrible reads I've run across...I wish we had a slightly "wider" rating system, maybe half stars. So, *1.5 stars* here. Just be aware what it is when you pick it up and if you think it will be your cup of tea, then fine. If you aren't interested in what is essentially a "lets rip the innocence away from another childhood myth novel"... well you're now forewarned. (less)

Jan 22, 2013 Brooke Johnston rated it 1 of 5 stars Recommends it for: someone bored with no other books around.

Not enjoyable. The writing is good, but nothing really happens and I'm not at all interested in what happens next -- because I suspect nothing happens next. The only thing inspiring me to finish is sheer force of will. Events happen in chunks, but they're minor events that don't lead to anything much. No payoff so far.

What I remembered, rather than learned, was how really terrifying childhood and adolescence can be! The character of the "Tooth Fairy", at once both horrifying and mesmerizing, wraps up all those childhood (pre-puberty) and teenage (puberty) fears into one repelling yet intriguing character. The story centers on 3 boys--Sam, Clive, and Terry--and begins with a large pike from the local pond biting off two of Terry's toes. It's a rollercoaster ride after that, and a dark one at that--imagine ridi...more

It's hard to classify this book. I suppose you'd call it a fantasy but if that suggests magic etc., then that's altogether wrong. It's about a boy who is haunted by a nightmarish and sexually predatory tooth fairy. It's never entirely clear whether or not the tooth fairy is real or imagined. Though often disturbing, the book is also very funny and even poignant in its painfully detailed evocation of adolescence and there are some remarkably original flashes in the writing.

I met Graham Joyce at Fantasycon last year and asked him which of his books would be the best one to start with. He recommended The Tooth Fairy, so I went ahead and picked it up. I went in blind, as it were - I didn't even read the blurb on the back of the book, and consequently had no idea what to expect.

It was a very compelling read. There's a sense in which the storytelling is deliberately unstructured, depriving you of the usual clues to the direction the narrative is taking. This has the ef...more

IMHO, Graham Joyce doesn't get enough respect in the US, despite the fact that he's won both the British Fantasy Award and the World Fantasy Award. Part of the problem may be that his work is hard to categorize, apart from putting it in the catch-all "speculative fiction" bin. The Tooth Fairy, for example, is psychological horror, maybe. Or maybe it's fantasy. It kind of depends on how you view what the main character is going through.

But underneath the veneer of normalcy simmers unexpected moments of darkness and danger. As the boys deal with life's many pitfalls -- growing up too smart, too dumb, too mediocre -- lurking in the shadows is a vicious tooth fairy which only one of them (Sam) can see.

I was in the reading mood, so I blew through this fairly quickly, but it lacked the charm of his most recent book, Some Kind of Fairy Tale, which was the novel that brought Graham Joyce to my attention. Due to my positive experience with the first book, I expected more from this one and came away wanting.

This was pretty good, but I've enjoyed a couple of his newer works more. I was somewhat surprised that this is considered his most popular book - granted, it's only somewhat recently that Joyce is being read widely in the U.S., and not that many of his books are readily available (but I get the sense that is changing). Joyce makes a big point of not wanting his books compared, but, well, life doesn't work that way. This is rather dark book, but that's to be expected. As is often the case, ambigu...more

The Moodies is a band of friends reminding me of movie favorites like The Goonies, Stand by Me, The Outsiders or American Grafitty. What is particular to this story is the continuous balancing act between the quirky comedy of growing up pains and the horror elements that rear their head from the very first page, where a huge pike bites some toes from the foot of one of the boys. It goes darker from here, but I had many moments of fun following the three friends as they leave childhood behind and come to terms with a grown up world that may prove to be hostile and cruel.

I think Graham Joyce managed extremely well to maintain the ambiguity regarding the intrusion of the supernatural into the story. I was kept guessing until the final page on the nature of the malefic Tooth Fairy from the title : either a figment of the imagination of Sam's disturbed mind, or a visitor from the world of Faery.

Another plus of the story for me is the portrayal of adolescents becoming aware of their sexuality and struggling to express themselves in this new charged environment. The inclusion of girls (Alice, Linda)into the boys fraternity is quite amusingly throwing a spanner in the works.

The adults in the story are rarely the understanding and supporting parents we have become used to from american television series. They are fallible, as clueless as the children most of the time, and hardly the role models the boys are looking for. They rise to the occssion though when things get really tough.

One word of advice : this is quite explicit and revealing for a young adult novel. I would still recommend it to a younger reader who is prepared to have his eyes open both to sexuality and to consequences of drug and alcohol abuse, rebellion against authority or suicidal depression. Yes there is fun and camaraderie to be found in the pages here, but the village of Redmont is no idyllic countryside with white lambs and innocent angels cavorting through the meadows. (less)

A brilliant evocation of coming-of-age in the sixties, juxtaposed with an hallucinatory sense of wonder--and terror.

Sam, seven at the beginning of the story, has the misfortune of actually catching the tooth fairy in the act of switching tooth for cash. He/she becomes obsessed with Sam, dogging him through his adolescence. Alternately terrifying and erotic, loving and malevolent, male and female, this creature becomes Sam's constant secret and the fantastical backbeat of his life.

At Powell's in Portland, in the room built for science fiction and fantasy, there's a note that says "If you like China Mieville, you may also like Graham Joyce." So I did. And I do.

It's not possible to say whether the goings-on of The Tooth Fairy should be classified as fantasy, or horror, or simply a coming-of-age story. This is because all proper tales of adolescence are horrifying and surreal. Is the titular character a psychological construct or a succubus? Does it influence the "real" worl...more

Here is a rundown from Publishers Weekly via Amazon.Com:

An unlikely sprite assumes a sinister incarnation in this exceptional supernatural novel about a troublesome but endearing trio of boys coming of age in the English Midlands in the 1960s. Seven-year-old Sam first lays eyes on the Tooth Fairy "oddly dressed and smelling of horse's sweat and chamomile" in the middle of the night after he has stashed a tooth under his pillow. Over the years, the fairy becomes a fixture in his life. No one else can see or hear this odd creature, who is sometimes male, sometimes female and alternately coy, cruel and cuddly. Even without this personal demon, Sam would get into plenty of trouble with his chums: Clive, a "gifted child" who wins a NASA (yes, the American NASA) science contest at age six but longs to be normal; Terry, an affable lad whose life is plagued by catastrophe; and Alice, the fetching, knowing girl who drives the boys wild with lust. Joyce engagingly describes the boys' childhood experiences - sampling drugs, toying with explosives, worrying over acne - and carefully portrays their childlike stoicism in the face of several horrifying tragedies.

The first thing that caught my attention when I started reading this book was that the Tooth Fairy wasn't showing up too often. I expected more, though this was based on another description I had read about the novel. Along with that, the kids parents were quickly introduced, and by first and last name, when the three main characters' last names where never attached. It had me scratching my head. I couldn't tell the parents apart or grasp a firm image of what they were like when the names were mentioned. I was also dealing with the misconception of the Tooth Fairy herself. But soon the book's pace fell into a good rhythm, things became clearer, other things started to develop a good pattern, and a good story emerged.

The one thing that the Tooth Fairy can be seen as is a metaphor for the problems and pressure a boy would endure while growing up and dealing with life. As is said in the description, the Tooth Fairy's appearance changes, and with the needs of what she is doing to Sam and what is happening in his life. Joyce's presentation is very subtle. At least it was to me. I was still dealing with the questions that Sam has throughout: is she real and is she the cause of his and those he knows' problems. However, the end gives a good interpretation of the answer, yet doesn't outwardly reveal the answer. Does that make sense?

It was interesting for me to read some of the reviews posted on Amazon about this book. Everyone seems to think of this as a horror novel. "Really?" I say to myself. Sure, some of the tragic events might be considered horror, but I saw some of them as just parts of life. Especially those that Terry deals with. Maybe more along the lines of bad luck. But one thing is clear, as pointed out by a review, that there is a difference between this novel and something that Stephen King would write. In a novel by King, you would know about the pain and gore that is involved, where as Joyce leaves it more as a surreal event.

Also, there is much more to this book then being a fantastical story with horror elements. At least to me. You learn much about the characters, especially Sam. There is much to laugh about too, if you know and enjoy British humor (sorry, but Joyce wrote this with a very British feel). The emotional pains of dealing with life is a big theme of this story. Not just from a the tragic either, just everyday things one growing up has to tackle. That's why it's best described as a coming of age story with a big fantastical element that makes it's different.

With the ending, and getting through those first few chapters and realizing where Joyce was going, it turned into a unique and interesting story. I look forward to reading more of Joyce's work.(less)
