Why read it?
1 author picked The Boats of the 'Glen Carrig' as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Hodgson's sea-based stories, drawing on his experience as a sailor, have a plausibility that draws me in. The vast emptiness of the ocean is depicted vividly, creating a sense of isolation that adds to the terror of his work. Add to this some of the most bizarre creatures in literature and we have a bleak, enchanting atmosphere. I find the sense of brooding horror really puts me in the scene.
From Tupenny's list on ominously atmospheric stories for a winter's night.
