Status Updates From Gormenghast (Gormenghast, #2)

"It was in Bellgrove's class one late afternoon, that Titus first thought consciously about the idea of colour: of things having colours: of everything having its own particular colour, and of the way in which every particular colour kept changing according to where it was, what the light was like, and what is was next to."

It's moments like this mixed in such a dense absurd gothic novel that make Gormenghast GREAT!
