Book Review

“Madame Solange” is a captivating novel that skilfully fuses elements of historical fiction with the thrilling facets of psychological and supernatural horror. Set against the backdrop of the 1930s in England, the narrative centres around our protagonist, Daniel Frome-Hardy. His world is upended by the return of Bernard Cromwell, a long-absent friend who brings with him a story that is as mysterious as it is unsettling.

The novel masterfully weaves together elements of the gothic and the macabre, drawing richly from the works of classic horror authors such as Edgar Allan Poe and J. Sheridan Le Fanu. It plunges into the exploration of themes surrounding domination, the supernatural, and the uncharted territories of the inexplicable, providing a deep dive into the darker corners of human psychology. The narrative style harks back to the prose of 19th-century literature, characterised by its extensively detailed descriptions and a careful, measured pace that gradually ratchets up the suspense.

The tale unravels through the lens of Daniel, allowing readers to vicariously experience his initial skepticism and the mounting horror as the true nature of Cromwell’s experiences comes to light. The novel’s tranquil English countryside setting starkly contrasts with the foreboding and otherworldly events that transpire, enhancing the sense of unease and the eerie atmosphere.

“Madame Solange” is a compelling literary journey for those interested in a blend of historical fiction and psychological horror, punctuated with a touch of the supernatural. It is particularly suited to fans of traditional gothic horror who are seeking a contemporary spin. The novel’s potent cocktail of suspense, terror, and mystery makes it an unforgettable read that lingers in the reader’s mind, long after the last page has been turned.
