Status Updates From The Great Work

Between the upright deer, the words of a madman scribbled in the friend’s journal, and the frightening silence the town has been forced into by the fear of the monster, the setting so far is unsettling and immaculate. I’d love to see this as a beautifully spooky film in the style of Train Dreams or The Ritual. I can’t wait to see where this is going!!

Constantly thinking about Ishmael’s essay on the metaphysics of whiteness in Moby Dick as I read this.

Oh, this is an oasis in a desert of mediocre books. Finally, some good fucking prose.
