This dreamlike, Kafka-esque tale of a college professor's descent into madness may be the best “unreliable narrator” book of all time. As the narrator's world disintegrates into a surreal, paranoid nightmare, The Horned Man is reminiscent of the best of Edgar Allan Poe. And like The Little Stranger, its final, lyrical and shiver-inducing sentences might melt your brain. Recommended to those who like a dose of masterfully crafted surrealism.
