Join Alix E. Harrow and Leopoldo Gout as they discuss the horrors found beneath the surface. Harrow’s Starling House is a modern Gothic novel about a young woman’s obsession with a sinister old manor in her hometown. Author Melissa Albert says the book is “Devastatingly good, a sharp, delicate nested tale of worlds within worlds, stories within stories, and the realm-cracking power of words.” Gout’s Piñata follows the Sanchez family, who are being stalked by something malevolent and unexplainable after unearthing a hidden stash of centuries-old artifacts in Mexico. Library Journal says “Gout succeeds in presenting a thought-provoking, violent, and immersive revenge-horror story and excels in restoring the rich history of an erased people.”
