There's a huge build up of tension in the little stranger. I was left guessing what would happen next, and it wasn't until the protagonist Faraday was saying his final thoughts on the case on the last few pages that i realised what really happened. she's an amazing writer. i love all her books. I wonder what lies beneath her eyes and in her thoughts.
She looks like a lovely woman who'd feed newborn kittens with an eyedropper and take cuttings from her geranium. But her writing suggests a morbid preoccupation with things like steam digesters and kelp.
The Little Stranger has haunted my thoughts and stalked my dreams since I first read it. As a huge H. James fan, I must admit I think it even better than The Turn of the Screw.
If ever there were an "instant classic" this is it. Brilliant story, brilliant story-teller.
