The Collector |
This novel captures the obsessive nature of a butterfly collector who turns his interest to girls; he possesses a country house after winning some money and lives alone. Added to the fact that the author used to collect butterflies (involving killing and pinning them) the whole story becomes even stranger. You are always uncertain as to what will happen, although it is likely to be irrational! An excellent read.
