Title: Crazy and Cruel
Review: In this novel Jackson has created a textbook-perfect example of an unreliable narrator.At first, it's easy to trust Merricat's view of the world, she seems like a sympathetic victim of cruelty from the village. But it doesn't take long before we another Merricat, and it is this obsessive, amoral, stunted and narcissistic young woman that forms the backbone and brilliance of Jackson's creepy novel. Yes, there are a few problems with the plot and some believability issues, but at the end of the day, this book is a brilliant character study and a wonderful read.
