Paperback, , X. · Mice Gordon Reece Viking ISBN ᴥ From page one of Mice by British author Gordon Reece, I found the main characters sympathetic, yet repulsive. Fortunately, this was the author’s intention, otherwise why show teenaged Shelley and her mother in that light?Estimated Reading Time: 3 mins. Reece has a strong visual sense and does a neat job of ratcheting the tension, but a shortage of subtlety and Shelley’s histrionic adolescent narration create an overall mood of near-comic caricature. Mice roar and worms turn in a bare-bones moral fable that, despite visceral episodes, creates little impact.
