The Lost Art of Twilight
Dec. 20th, 2018 09:20 pmI just finished a short story I liked, "The Lost Art of Twilight" by Thomas Ligotti. It's about a spooky artist so of course I would. But the thing is, how do you even go about reviewing a short story? I read it in Songs of a Dead Dreamer and Grimscribe, but I can't recommend the whole book because I don't like all of them. It's hard to point out where to read this particular one because it's not online, and it's hard to say anything more than it's about a spooky artist because it's so short, so saying much more would give away too much. So... I guess I am not entirely sure what to do with this information when I read a short story I like. That's part of what makes the whole thing difficult.
But then, maybe not. Novels get tossed around so much. Maybe a short story can just be if it's any good, and we can just leave it at that.
