GOBLIN A Novel in Six Novellas

Through narrator Dominic Hoffman's rumbling, contemplative tones, listeners explore the eerie town of Goblin. In six installments, Hoffman's unhinged, vivid characterizations draw listeners into the unsettling experiences of Goblin's residents and their entangled histories. Malerman's world-building is thorough and unyielding; events range from a long-distance love affair gone horribly wrong to a tragedy on a hunting trip, a magician whose tricks come at a steep price, and a little girl's journey to solve a hedge maze. Hoffman's emphatic delivery is well suited to the characters' heated relationship dynamics, and his dogged pacing works to maintain the momentum of this comprehensive collection.
