ITF Read: Lovecraft Country (2016 novel) part two ft. Remy Nakamura
Manage episode 274512137 series 1578399
Writer and friend of the show Remy Nakamura joins to weigh in on the second half of Matt Ruff’s novel, his own relationship to H. P. Lovecraft’s work, and shout out some other amazing authors worth checking out if you want more socially-conscious cosmic horror. In episode 156, Luke, James, and Remy react to the conclusion of this uniquely American tale of monsters, magic, and hate.
Chapters covered:
“Hippolyta Disturbs the Universe” “Jeckyl in Hyde Park” “The Narrow House” “Horace and the Devil Doll”
“The Mark of Cain” Topics: Remy’s introduction to Lovecraft’s purple prose, the Tulsa Massacre appearing in fiction, obstacles preventing Black people from pursuing astronomy in the 50s, Caleb Braithwhite’s need for control, something fiction does better than film, a Mormonism connection, and whether the book succeeds in its effort to tie racism to cosmic horror.
