the book is set in the 1950s, but the characters speak as if it’s the 1850s, except from when they speak like it’s the 2020s. i’d be enjoying this a whole lot more if the writing were any more polished. the house is damp, the house is dark, the house is ugly. that’s what the entire story has been so far.

epithets for a named character? immediate ick. nevertheless i shall persevere
