My rating: 4 of 5 stars
The Reservoir, David Duchovny, 2021
Interesting story, definitely gave me Hitchock vibes. Psychosis, crackpot conspiracy theories, a lady in red, a bear in the woods (not the kind you think-- wink wink), conflated in Covid-19 pandemic times, well, made a creative construct to tell the author's story.
The writing felt a tad bit forced, as if Duchovny was trying to prove his ability as a serious writer-- choosing almost-abstruse word pairings over simple eloquence for voice and stylization.
I give it a 4 out of 5 stars.
