Another novel for those who think they've heard it all, it being the story of a talking hole. Yes, a hole, or rather an oubliette, which not only serves as the story's chief driving force but also narrates the thing. It begins with a drunk happening upon the oubliette in a dark alley. Glad to have someone to chat with, the hole tells the drunk its story, which is actually the story of Alexis, a Toronto resident who travels by herself to England in a bid to escape a traumatic divorce. She finds herself inexorably drawn to the ruins of an age-old castle named Fastyngange, which houses the oubliette. Also lurking in the area are a score of ghosts, all of people who lost their lives, or at least their sanity, by falling down the hole. .311p.. Book. Book Condition: Fair.
