This book was mysterious, and intriguing, and extremely thought-provoking. At times I would re-read sections to make sure that I was getting the point. For anyone who likes to read psychological, indepth, multi-layered works, this book is for you. William Styron uses the language in a way that is awe-inspiring. He obviously has an intimate knowledge with madness, and he leaves the remnants on each page. I finished this book, and felt that there should be more. /.,/Shelle

If you love southern authors, here is one of the best. This is one of my favorite authors. Very intense, in a subtle way. This book evidently brought him onto "the scene". LOVED IT!!! ... and plan to reread many times.
