Or
Leon Craig on misunderstanding ghosts and getting what we want
I’m looking forward to diving into the crumbling and the haunted this week with Leon Craig.
We’re discussing Leon Craig’s THE DECADENCE.
And you the listener picked Leon as one of the rising stars of literature that you wanted me to interview.
Have you ever walked past an old abandoned house and wondered what kinds of lives were lived there? Have you ever dared to explore one? Perhaps you wanted to escape and hide in the house. Or perhaps you wanted to use it for something a little more nefarious.
Leon Craig, whose previous collection of short stories, PARALLEL HELLS, was also published by Sceptre, is a graduate of the Birkbeck MFA Creative Writing course. Her work has been published by Hazlitt, the Sunday Times, the London Magazine and others and is forthcoming in Nulla magazine and Berlin Babel anthology.
