The God Of Small Things: 200 Word Reviews #9
The God of Small Things by Arundhati Roy is an utterly phenomenal book. I struggle to put into words the beauty of its prose, or do a semblance of justice to the ragged and raw story of trauma it tells. Reading it changed me, changed the kind of books I hope to write.

The King In Yellow: 200 Word Reviews #5
The King In Yellow is a rough, jagged cornerstone of Weird Fiction on which so many later, and better, writers have built their work. They far surpass Robert W. Chambers, but plant their stories in ground he broke and, in many ways, paint within the broad lines he lay down.

The Man On The Ground
It was a cloudy day that whispered of rain when I drove down to the big city. I sped past a bus stop and saw someone there. They lay on the concrete pavement, bare feet crossed with one arm wrapped around their head. The person looked old; I saw a flash of grey hair and tanned, wrinkled skin and a dirty flannelette jacket.

Planet Of The Apes: 200 Word Reviews #1
Planet Of The Apes is an unsettling story that examines what it means to be human, what it means to be conscious, through a planet where humans and apes have swapped roles. It is now men who are herded and hunted. It is now men that are tortured for the sake of scientific progress. It is a man from earth that arrives on this planet and threatens ape society with his very existence.
