More great reviews for THE SOMNAMBULIST!
The Washington Post loves it, noting:
"There is much that is strange, magical and darkly hilarious in this book, at least if one savors the sardonic and the bizarre. At various points it recalls Dickens, "Alice in Wonderland" and "Frankenstein," but it remains an original and monumentally inventive piece of work by a writer still in his 20s. Barnes seems to leave himself room for a sequel -- a consummation devoutly to be wished."
And Bookgasm agrees: "This mix of mystery, fantasy and the uncategorizable proves absolutely beguiling."
Entertainment Weekly liked but not loved it, giving it a 'B'.
