Catling, art by Dave McKean. Dublin, Ireland; Swan River Press; 2020. 1st edition hardcover, limited to 500 SIGNED (by BOTH author & artist) unnumbered copies. There hadn't been monks at the abbey since 1600.

Not living ones, that is. When the puckish spirit of a monk begins haunting the storied village of Pulborough, known for its ancient abbey, Maud Garner, manager of the Coach and Horses Inn, arranges for the famous ghost hunter, Walter Prince, to come investigate. And from there, things spiral out of control. Peopled with richly drawn Dickensian grotesques and filled with bizarre and comical incident, Munky is as compelling as it is antic. Catling transports the reader to an interwar England in the throes of change. Part bizarre ghost story, part whimsical farce, part idiosyncratic literary experiment, it could be described as P. Wodehouse collaborating with Raymond Roussel, with a dash of M. James, if it weren't so uniquely its own thing. "Brian Catling's peculiar genius for observation, and the testing and squeezing of location, always honours what Blake called "the Vegetated Mortal Eye's perverted & single vision. It sometimes feels that the Eye has been removed and left overnight in a glass, such are the layers of spectral comedy swaggering into view.

Life through the bottom of a deep pint jar. Is a delirious blend of terror and pantomime.

The spine-chilling realisation, for those who have trespassed anywhere near this territory, where river licks at ecclesiastical land, is that it is all true. Cover art by Dave McKean.
