Product Information

As we jumped from character to character (which I like), I wanted the tension to build. I wanted to feel that horrible feeling when we can predict how these worlds are going to collide and blow up. We're told at the beginning what's going to happen. In this case, the break from pure chronology failed. Some stories start with the end, and you're still enthralled. In this case, you're not. There's no tension in this story. It also failed because there's essentially nothing after that. When you're told the ending at the beginning, you expect a bit more. Otherwise, as in this case, the story is anticlimactic. When the crisis reached its climax, it seemed rushed.

The juxtaposition of life in the park and life on the estate is striking, and the balance between the story of the human lives and the story of all that life in the park is very well judged.

However, if I had to I would connect it to Frankenstein somehow. I do not see how you could teach this book without making a reference to God, and how Stephen and Frankenstein are somewhat taking over the role of God by creating a living being. Pottery Journal - Guided Pottery Project Book - 100 Sheets to Record your Ceramic Art - Gift for Pottery lovers Time passes, seasons change and relationships shift as Melissa Harrison tells her story in lovely, lyrical prose. A beguiling book that entwined people and nature. Loved the prose, not over precious, yet I could see and hear and sense the seasons as they were described. Also because the setting was in London, the nature was small and confined, with just a hint, an echo of something greater and wilder, perhaps like the wolf the little boy wanted to see.There are definite supernatural elements in this book, but they are religious elements more than the stuff of ghost stories. As a Catholic myself, I found myself sympathizing greatly with Davie and the religious aspects of his life, and I thought the depiction of 1960s Catholicism was very well done and certainly not inaccurate or overwrought, as is sometimes the case when trying to make religion appealing to secular readers. Its structure could be seen as a precursor to Reservoir 13, but concentrated into a smaller area and smaller time-span, without the mystery, and suburban, with a more definite conclusion.
