SPR Awards 2021 Reader's Notes on Simon's Mansion

“An honest and daring look at a troubled boy’s life. Poe does not shy away from the taboo, and in doing so, adroitly shines a light on that which is dark to so many. The narrative is constructed simply, using the return to childhood home as a springboard into memory. This doesn’t detract from the story, as Poe doesn’t need to play tricks with form. It’s the content within, the themes explored, the love investigated, and the discovery of the self where the story’s strength lies.” -SPR Awards 2021 Reader's Notes #poebooksart #simonsmansion
