Eu sempre fui uma apaixonada por jujuba e por um tempo fiz vista grossa, mas parei de vez com o consumo porque quanto mais se sabe, mais culpado se sente.

Ghost behind the door
The old house there stood empty, upon the hill so high.
And no one ever dared, to step a foot inside.
The windows were all broken, the roof was caving in.
The screen door in the front would fly open in the wind.

1. The Müller-Fokker Effect, John Sladek (1970)
(McInnery’s cover for the 1972 edition)
4.25/5 (Very Good)
In my 2016 in review I promised to read more of Sladek’s work, and for once I’m holding true to my reading goals.
That said, I find Sladek’s novels notoriously difficult to parse into…
