Of Bookish Things<p>This crisis of love and personal relationship plays out against the borderline of faerie; what Dunsany referred to as “beyond the fields we know”. Runhill Court straddles this borderline. Early on in the novel, Isabel, in an attempt to understand her odd experience and memory loss, seeks more information about Runhill&#39;s history. She discovers that according to legend, in the 6th century a man named Ulf dared to build a home on Troll cursed land. It came to pass that he and part of the tower how his abode were taken away. The haunted room was once called Ulf&#39;s Tower/Goblins&#39; Tower. For some, access to the lost rooms and what awaits within and beyond is very real. And so, the danger for the central characters is to become lost in the land of faerie, either psychological or in a metaphysical manner.</p><p>While there is definitely an element of supernatural horror that suggests an M. R. James dénouement, Lindsay is intent on writing a metaphysical fantasy that is an exploration of love, passion, and the self-exploration of inner truth, that veers to the metaphorical/allegorical narrative style of <a href="https://c.im/tags/GeorgeMacDonald" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>GeorgeMacDonald</span></a>. As a consequence, I found some of the building tension, and supernatural horror was undercut by Lindsay&#39;s desire to suggest that Isbel&#39;s psychological-spiritual journey was one of personal growth, that was demanding, but not without hope.</p><p>Overall, The Haunted Woman is a fascinating novel that challenged the writer, and challenges the reader both in its mixed genre style and the questions it raises. I hope others have found my reader&#39;s response of value.</p><p><a href="http://gutenberg.net.au/ebooks06/0608401h.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">http://</span><span class="ellipsis">gutenberg.net.au/ebooks06/0608</span><span class="invisible">401h.html</span></a></p><p><a href="https://www.fadedpage.com/showbook.php?pid=20190218" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">fadedpage.com/showbook.php?pid</span><span class="invisible">=20190218</span></a></p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/PicturePromptBingo" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>PicturePromptBingo</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/BookReview" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>BookReview</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Book" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Book</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Books" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Books</span></a><br /><a href="https://c.im/tags/DavidLindsay" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>DavidLindsay</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/MRJames" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>MRJames</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/SupernaturalHorror" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>SupernaturalHorror</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/GhostStory" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>GhostStory</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Faerie" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Faerie</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/FairieRealm" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>FairieRealm</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/LordDunsany" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>LordDunsany</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/TheHauntedWoman" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>TheHauntedWoman</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Mystery" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Mystery</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/MetaphysicalFantasy" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>MetaphysicalFantasy</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Fantasy" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Fantasy</span></a></p>
