This is strange, lovely and creeps up on you.Everything in this text is hypersaturated with magic and like Little, Big it all unfolds slowly and beautifully.
I might be silly (or intertextual) to use a Simpsons quote in a review like this, but John Crowley's book "makes me think of a song I can't quite remember in a place I may never have been."
I think that sums it up--I'm homesick for the Faraway Hills and I've never been there. Or maybe I have.
