Having finally read the book, I can confirm that although the dark Lovecraftian tale did bring my grief to the forefront of my mind, it was an almost cathartic read. So it sat, gathering dust on my shelf for a number of years. I know the triggers in my life and for a long time after buying this book, I assumed this would be one of them. For this reason I’ve always been cautious about reading ‘The Fisherman’ by John Langan, which was released in 2016. I know I’ll never fully recover from the pain that it’s inflicted on me, despite the lulls in its grasp, it’s always there. Personally, I’ve experienced grief on a life changing scale.
You never move away from the shores of grief, merely learn to adapt yourself to living in the dark shadow of its grasp.
