Episode 52 is a special one. My guest is Brian Evenson returning to Postcards to talk about his new short story collection with the subtle title The Glassy, Burning Floor of Hell. Brian Evenson is a professor of creative writing at CalTech Arts and the author of several novels including Last Days, Immobility, Feral, and an Alien Tie-in novel called No Exit under the name B.K.Evenson.

The dark surreal underbelly of high literature is kind of the space that Evenson writes in. Weird, bizarro, horror, Science Fiction, cosmic, surrealist all labels that fit stories here and there in the various collections he has released.

This conversation is mostly focused on the writing of the stories and is spoiler-tastic. The first 23 minutes are general without spoilers. I suggest that you read the book before listening past that point. You can still gain much from listening if you have not read the stories in the collection about the craft of short stories. Brian Evenson is a master of short stories and I happy to say I learned a lot from this conversation I think you can too.
