Event 47 - Unsettling Fictions
Queen of Latin American horror Mariana Enriquez (A Sunny Place for Shady People) has been praised for her short stories which capture how “horror can hum underneath the everyday” (The Times).
Catherine Chidgey remarked that what sets Ockham NZ Book Award shortlisted author Kirsty Gunn (Pretty Ugly) apart is her ability to anatomise “the dissonance between what is seen and what is felt” in her “darkly glittering” short fiction.
Brought together from Argentina and Scotland to an Aotearoa New Zealand stage, they talk to Lee Murray about how they create maximum menace and unease via this shortest of forms.
