Another in the "is this horror or just awesomely weird" category, this was Bank's first novel. The narrator is a horrible, horrible kid who uses his precocious, twisted intellect to wreak havoc on animals and other children - and yet by the end of novel, you understand and maybe even love him.
I love when that happens!
Banks went on to be more famous for his science fiction, but I think WF is his best work. I heartily recommend it.
