*** The Grove, John Rector, 2011
This is one funky book, a fascinating look into the disintegration of a mind when a guy with a mental/mood disorder goes off his meds.
It starts when the farmer finds the body of a high-school girl in a grove beyond his cornfield and doesn't go to the authorities. Soon he's having conversations with the girl, which degenerate further into psychosis as the body decomposes.
It sounds morbid, but it's actually fascinating. Rector knows what he's doing. I'll have to check out his other books.
