Uncanny, haunting, and intimate, Schweblin’s short stories read like modern fairy tales. »In Samanta Schweblin’s hands a single story becomes a theory of just about everything.« [Colum McCann] In »Good and Evil and Other Stories« [trans. Megan McDowell] she weaves together tales of family, grief, and regret with phantasmagoric imagery – revealing just how fragile and unsettling everyday life can be. In conversation with Juan S. Guse, she discusses neo-fantastical writing and horror.
With Samanta Schweblin
Moderated by Juan S. Guse
