I'm rereading Gaiman's preferred text version at the moment Stephen Send a noteboard - 15/06/2011 12:18:14 PM
ALl of those little vignettes, that little northern town where Shadow stays for a while, they all help to set the mood of the book.


And I'd have to say I preferred the original, leaner version. Which isn't to say don't like the little details, i do, its just i see that the mood would be conserved without every single one.

Yeah, it seems superflous when you first read it, but I think it adds a lot when you reread it - 15/06/2011 01:14:49 AM 593 Views
