The Truth is a Cave in the Black Mountains

Author: Neil Gaiman
Stars: 3
Review by: Autumn

This book is a novella originally written to be performed at the Sydney Opera House in Australia.  It was recently published and set to illustrations by artist Eddie Campbell.  While I generally enjoyed the story, I found that sometimes the graphics clashed and somewhat distracted from the text.  This story is not Gaiman's best, but I think that it would make for a very interesting performance piece.  He just performed this work last weekend at Carnegie Hall and I'm sorry I wasn't able to attend!
