Über diesen Titel


'An impeccable work of folk horror' Irish Times

The worst thing possible has happened. Richard and Juliette Willoughby's son, Ewan, has died suddenly at the age of five. Convinced that the boy still lives on in some form, and desparate to make contact, Juliette seeks the help of the Beacons, a seemingly benevolent group of occultists. Whereas Ricahrd, an art historian, tries to blot out the pain of his grief by turning his attention to the field opposite their house, Starve Acre. Patiently he digs in the barren soil looking for the roots of a legendary oak tree but unearths something which ought to have remained buried.

'I will confidently predict that no reader will guess where it's heading . . . Hurley's ability to create a wold that's like ours in many ways and really not in many others is again on full display' The Times

Had to put the speed on a little quicker, otherwise good performance. Came here from the movie which I thought had really interesting pieces but didn’t work as a whole. Similar story here. Plus there is SO much tell rather than show in this story. Would have preferred the story to unfold chronologically instead of layering it bc the layering seemed as though the author was making things up as he went without really doing the leg work to weave that into the previous bits. Also could not build any emotional connection to any of these characters. Could have gone deeper. Love the concept though, just wish it had been executed better.

interesting ideas, not so great execution
