A Spectral Hue

When I began this book, I was a bit disoriented. I loved Gidney's Sea, Swallow Me and was fully expecting to love this one. Expectations ran high. To my dismay, it started a little slowly. The book is told from multiple points of view and it took me quite a few chapters to really get what was going on. Then the plot started to sink in and I got it. I got the layers of meaning, the smart prose, and the colorful characters. It all wove together into a terrific, non-traditional ghost story, using artistic obsession as its medium. This book was nominated for a Lambda Literary Award in 2019.
