O Senhor Do Mundo par Robert Benson Hugh
Presente de Natal da Claudia, 2023
I found it a bit tough to get through. I found him spending too much time on the descriptions of a persons interior movement and redescribing it over and over. I was impatient with them and skimmed a bunch getting to the action. It could have been cut down to a more bone and quicker story in some ways.
If you enjoy the stories of E.F. Benson, well, you'll probably hate this book as much as I did. The three brothers did nominally all write spook stories but only one did it well. A certain liveliness of image is almost always ruined here by an overtly Christian moralizing. People donate ill gotten buried treasures to build churches, that sort of thing. A mysterious white figure carries off the now smiling ghost, it having faced its misdeeds made on this mortal coil, finally, from the other side. I'm sure this sort of dreck was wildly popular among the better classes up until the mid-twentieth century. A sort of acceptable spiritualism.
It's all lost on us now even making so called contemporary inspirational fiction seem sophisticated by comparison.… (plus d'informations)
