In today’s episode I am talking to the very very cool Elle Nash. Elle is a writer, editor and lecturer who has published multiple novels over the last decade.  Her debut novel, Animals Eat Each Other was kind of a surprise indie success, in 2018, it was featured in The Oprah Magazine and praised by Publishers Weekly as a “complex, impressive exploration of obsession and desire.”  She’s since then wrote the short story collection Nudes (2021), the novella Gag Reflex (2022), and  her latest novel Deliver Me (2023). Just from reading these titles you can hear that Elle’s work trangresses between body horror, a lingering erotiscims and an almost unsettling vulnerability which is also the vibe that comes across in her substack Fuck Marry Kill and her instagram handle @saderotica.
