Book Reviews of The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy: and Other Stories

Book Review: A bizarre treat in this world of tricks!
Summary: 5 Stars

When I came across this book, I was quite excited, as I am an admirer of Tim Burton's films. Mr. Burton has already made an entry in the publishing field with The Nightmare Before Christmas , (which he illustrated as well). With The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy, Burton proves, again, that a tortured psyche is often the most intriguing! Sad, eeirily compelling quick glimpses of misifts and nature's whimsy make up the contents of this book, illustrated by Burton. I reccomend this for anyone with an apprecation for the unique.
