Today I have Del Sandeen on the show to discuss Women of Southern Gothic. Del’s debut novel, THIS CURSED HOUSE, revels in traditional gothic tropes in the context of issues embedded in gothic novels set in the American South. It’s a fresh take on a long tradition of this subgenre, and we discuss what sets Southern Gothic apart from other gothic novels. We also give you some great recommendations, which I've listed below:
- When the Reckoning Comes by LaTanya McQueen
- Academy for Liars by Alexis Henderson
- The Witch of Tin Mountain by Paulette Kennedy
- Sing, Unburied, Sing by Jesmyn Ward
- The Complete Stories of Flannery O'Connor by Flannery O'Connor
- Interview with the Vampire by Anne Rice
- Spook Lights by Eden Royce
- Root Work by Tracy Cross
- Mama Day by Gloria Naylor
- Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn
- Flowers in the Attic by VC Andrews
