Book Review of Agyar

Agyar

I was going to give this 4.5 stars -- it is original, suspenseful, humorous, engaging -- until the ending, which I didn't like. Also, there were a few other sections, occasionally, that I didn't feel were quite clear, perhaps due to efforts at subtlety. However, it's a well-earned 4 stars: Agyar the vampire, who is never explicitly identified as such, is going through something of a mid-life crisis and decides to record his observations and experiences on an old typewriter he finds in the house in which he's squatting. An enjoyable and unusual read.
