We Have Always Lived in the Castle
For part three of our run of horror episodes, we take their first steps into the New England Gothic world of Shirley Jackson. Jackson, whose The Haunting of Hill House was adapted by Netflix last year, has had a lasting influence on horror. For this episode, we're beginning at the end, with a deep dive into Jackson's final novel, the chilling, 1962 tale of two sisters and a house: We Have Always Lived in the Castle.
Joining us this week is Emma Sarconi, Reference Professional for Special Collections at Princeton University's Firestone Library. Emma offers some insight into the world of special collections, including the sorts of artifacts and stories that personally make her work so special, as well as a background of Jackson's life and family to provide some additional context to this eerie tale of otherness and mystery set in small-town Vermont.
