Description

A headlong adrenaline-rush of a new novel from one of our most beloved and original writers: Slade House, which has its origins in Mitchell's famously Twitter-released short story last year, is his most entertaining and accessible novel yet. A cycle of linked ghost stories perfect for any dark and stormy night.     An ordinary road in a town like yours: bus routes and red-brick houses. A dank narrow alley, easy to miss, even when you're looking for it. A small black metal door set into the wall: no handle, no keyhole, but at your touch it opens onto a sunlit garden, sloping up to a house that doesn't quite make sense... Go through, and the door closes discreetly behind you. In David Mitchell's exhilarating new novel, five "guests" separated by nine years enter Slade House for a brief visit--only to vanish without trace from the outside world. Who draws them to the heart of Slade House, and why is the house missing from maps? Beginning in 1979 and ending in 2015, these five interlacing narratives will enchant Mitchell's readers, old and new, with a signature blend of mystery, realism and the supernatural.

Anything David Mitchell is amazing, at least so far in my opinion. However, this is slightly different as it is his first foray into the "literary, scary fairytale" genre. Because this genre is prone to spoilers, I won't say much. I recommend it if you are into an interesting story, a little spooky, with a number of interesting characters. Mitchell is a master of the language, so it will be better written than most things like it. Also, this story ranges over several decades and about a dozen characters, but because Mitchell's work can span centuries and contain 100s of characters (seriously), everything is easy to understand, and comes together nicely at the end.If you are a Mitchell fan, this is an interesting, relatively easy entry into a new genre. If you like spooky tales, this is a good one, that unfolds slowly, so it'll keep you interested. If you just like good books, it's worth it. Highly recommended.
