Oh man... "The Painted Bird" - read that one in college and it still haunts me. It's one I've never been able to put out of my head, and it sometimes surprises me the clarity with which I can recall so many scenes from it (that sometimes I'd rather not). Terrible and lovely is a very apt way of describing it.
