The Sundial by Shirley Jackson

3.0

Although The Sundial is among my least favorite novels by Jackson, it’s a novel unlike any other I’ve read. The Sundial is a creepy tale about a family who believes the world’s end is approaching and only those on the family estate will survive. 

The characters are weird in the best Jackson kind of way. Mrs. Halloran was my favorite to read about. I enjoyed her cruel character, and as the “ring leader” of the family, it made for a delightful read! All in all, I’d recommend this novel to fans of Jackson and gothic fiction.
