A review by tobin_elliott
The Unsettled Dust by Robert Aickman

Did not finish book. Stopped at 40%.

I'd heard that Aickman was the master of subtlety in his stories. Unfortunately, in the four stories I got through, I found myself zoning out on all the various details that are unrelentingly delivered, along with bits of story in between. I enjoyed the typical one sentence downbeat endings, but found the lead-up wasn't worth the payoff.

Just not for me.

So, I bailed. DNF, so no rating.
