bebocarrick 's review for:

Hollow by Brian Catling
5.0

I feel like I've been looking for a book like this my entire life, honestly. It speaks to my love of horror, art, surreal shit, and religion all in one wonderful little novel. I've never read anything like it, and I doubt I ever will.

It reminded me a bit of a medieval version of another book I read this year and enjoyed, BĂȘte by Robert Adams. I do think Hollow was executed much better and lagged less, so I enjoyed it more. (Not to mention the VIBES were just *chef's kiss*).

I loved how the three separate storylines intertwined and played off of each other. The wordplay in the book was also incredible! I'm excited to read more by Catling because I loved this one so much!
