Pros

  • Wylding Hall by Elizabeth Hand. Full cast audiobook. Really feels like it was meant to be an audiobook. It’s basically interviews with members of a British folk band after a summer (?) spent at a country manor where things go wrong.
  • I also enjoyed Wylding Hall by Elizabeth Hand, although my old book club was a bit mixed on it.
  • The description of the photo in Wylding Hall.
  • Wylding Hall Elizabeth Hand
  • *Wylding Hall* by Elizabeth Hand does a modern period twist on that - it's an oral history looking back to 1970 when an English folk band holed up in Wylding Hall, an old remote English country manor, to record their debut album.

Cons

  • Wylding Hall is a bit like a fever dream. The structure really helps make it mysterious and a little bit frustrating to never get the real story

Wylding Hall by Elizabeth Hand. Nothing graphic or gorey, just completely atmospheric and unsettling.

Wytching Hall by Elizabeth Hand. This one was a recommendation from u/outofeffs and she has excellent taste. ... A great structure full of conflicting perspectives, and an eerie feel.
