My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Hmm. This is one of those books where I find myself wondering what it would have been like to read it in 1959, before the advent of modern horror in both books and film.
I enjoyed this book, but I can't help but think I would have enjoyed it more if I hadn't seen the movie based on it (which gave me an idea of where the story was going) and didn't have that experience with other horror books.
All the same, though, the writing is quite enjoyable and I do appreciate seeing the roots of the horror genre as it stands today.
