In Poe’s House of Usher, it was the peculiarity of the people and their maladies (and not the house) where here we have a bit of both. Poe’s long sentences lulled you into a sense of rhythm where here ideas are cut off sharply or pivot quickly with a barb or an irrelevant digression, or a quick ironic retort.

Characters strangely talk past each other a lot in this book. What happened to that one chapter that Eleanor and Luke might be becoming involved?

Weird thing to joke. — “Perhaps I will just push you over the edge,’ Luke said.”

Well, Mrs. Montague is one way to highten the tension. Just go on and pour gas on that fire.

Cool, but…what does that actually mean? — “…the shuddering whiteness of the trees…”

I’m not sure when the change happened. Maybe when Eleanor saw her name in chalk. — “…and she wanted, quite honestly, to slap his face.”
