The Lost Author by Chris Barkley is eerily atmospheric, magical realism novel that is spiraling into an introspective narration which is masterfully crafted and blended with murder mystery plot. Alluring, richly marinated in Gothic culture it's a hunting beauty, story of guilt, past trauma and self awakening created a powerful emotional kaleidoscope and the riveting writing style slowly explores characters in a way that is deeply moving, plunged into your heart with a disturbing ache. Nobody is perfect, everyone has a skeleton in their closet, each character has a deep gash of imperfections in their hearts. The way this book unwinds their flaws, it's astonishing and scary. We all are like that isn't it? And we are all like Euan, oblivious to his own soul Euan looking forward to someone of higher quality, always wanted to escape from the place where we are, and Malcolm knows it too well, that's why he wrote fantasy novels. Malcolm invited his loved ones, his family and friends to an island. Malcolm Furnival, legendary author killed mysteriously, but a few hours before, he appointed Euan to finish his unfinished manuscript which is lost. Searching the lost manuscript became a new hunting game in Island but it slowly revealed a lot of unsettling truths about the family. This book will stay with you for a long time, it meant to linger in your heart and in the atmosphere for more time. Do you like atmospheric reading?
