The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy & Other Stories by Tim Burton

5.0

Tim Burton is amazing.
(I know it's a cliche, but still I have to say this)

I already saw all of the Stain Boy and other characters Flash animation files sometimes ago in some website I long forgotten.
But this book is a hundred times better.

What I really love from Tim Burton is the way his characters can give me a really bad disturbing nightmare, but in the same time I can't help not falling in love with them.
I really do.

It's tragic, but it is sweet.
It's tragic, but it is damn hilarious.
It's tragic, but it is heart warming.

Juxtaposed, I know.
Yet that is the Tim Burton I adore.

(sue me!)
