If you ever loved 19th century gothic horror, this will fit snugly into that place in your heart. I also adore works that take the wider world into consideration and come with linguistic notes, pronunciation guides, cultural footnotes, all of that. Absolutely adored the the slow, wonderful unraveling of horror. Ghastly things lurk in the night, but as we lovers of the genre know, that's not all there is to it. Beautiful work, eagerly anticipating more!
