Моя оценка

"Wild Swimming", an epistolary tale of aquatic horror, stands out among visions of evil toys and post-apocalyptic survival. A reservoir in Lithuania leads wild swimmer Chrissie to some deep and very dark revelations, as she writes to her friend in the story that Stephen King judged the winner of Guardian short story contest. “My favourite, however – and the winner – is Wild Swimming,” said King. “It is told via email, making it part of a small but interesting genre: the 21st‑century epistolary tale. One central image could have come straight out of an EC horror comic from the 1950s. Once again, we are told not too much (that the Russians may have deliberately drowned the inhabitants, for instance), but just enough. The central plot element – wild swimming – is new and novel, something I’d never encountered before.”
