Review of 'The Haunting of Hill House' on 'Goodreads'

5 étoiles

It seems strange to review a universally hailed classic, but here it is: this is a truly, deeply unsettling novel. Apart from the ghost story, the social horror they Jackson also brought to The Lottery is what gets under the skin. How much of Eleanor's story is real? How much of Eleanor herself is real?

The doubt is as pervasive as the dread, and the dread runs very deep.
