Interpretation Supposing Books Quicksand House

From master of bizarro fiction Carlton Mellick III, author of the international cult hits Satan Burger and Adolf in Wonderland, comes a dystopian nightmare of epic proportions.
"You must never leave the nursery. If you leave, you will certainly die."

Tick and Polly have never met their parents before. They live in the same house with them, they dream about them every night, they share the same flesh and blood, yet for some reason their parents have never found the time to visit them even once since they were born. Living in a dark corner of their parents' vast crumbling mansion, the children long for the day when they will finally be held in their mother's loving arms for the first time... But that day seems to never come. They worry their parents have long since forgotten about them.

When the machines that provide them with food and water stop functioning, the children are forced to venture out of the nursery to find their parents on their own. But the rest of the house is much larger and stranger than they ever could have imagined. The maze-like hallways are dark and seem to go on forever, deranged creatures lurk in every shadow, and the bodies of long-dead children litter the abandoned storerooms. Every minute out of the nursery is a constant battle for survival. And the deeper into the house they go, the more they must unravel the mysteries surrounding their past and the world they've grown up in, if they ever hope to meet the parents they've always longed to see.

Like a survival horror rendition of Flowers in the Attic, Carlton Mellick III's Quicksand House is his most gripping and sincere work to date.

Commentary Containing Books Quicksand House

Quicksand House is often talked about as one of Mellick's best books. After finishing it I'd go as far as to say it is now one of my favourite books. I've read a few of Carlton's odd tales and have really enjoyed them. This is the longest of his books I've read. Quicksand House features the usual layers of absurdity but beneath all of this lies a fantastic tale of siblings trying to find their parents inside of a labyrinth-like mansion. Mellick briefly talks about how this is a very personal

For those out there who think Bizarro is just about silliness, the bar has been raised. This story will shatter your heart, hopes and dreams as you read about Polly and Tick, children who have never known their parents, who have never seen the world outside of the nursery in their country-sized mansion. One day, when the Creepers destroy their every day way of life in the nursery, they go in search of the mother and father they've never known. What they find is that their parents have probably

I figured this book was going to be good given the praise and the fact that it's a Carlton Mellick III book. I've a read a few books from Mellick that I really enjoyed but nothing could prepare me for Quicksand House.The beginning of the book has the air of a children's book you may have read when you were little and then when you read it as an adult you ask yourself, "How was this ever considered a child's book?!" Elements of the fantasy childlike wonder are present with the crude harsh reality

This book fell on the more interesting side of Mellick's work, rather than the shocking/bizarre side. I enjoyed it, but it was not quite as weird as some of his other work.



In reality, a 4.5 .A dark, imaginative and yet hopeful tale of , well let's just say siblings.This is, easily Mellick's most accomplished work. Recently I delved back into his early cannon and the difference between then and now is marked. His writing improves every year and I'm excited to see where he can go.If I had to criticise I feel the climax was a little , i dunno, less impactful than the build up deserved. Slightly. Ever so slightly

OMG! This is the strangest and somehow one of the coolest books I've read in a long time. I'm not even sure how to classify this book; I will probably file it under science fiction, but the book classifies itself as "bizarro fiction," which is probably more accurate. Tick and his sister Polly (who has green hair and antlers growing out of her head) live in a nursery in a huge house. They have never seen their parents, ever, their nanny promises their parents will come for them soon. When the
