INFORMAZIONI SU QUESTO EPISODIO
After another unexpected break, Chatting Lit is back! In this episode, I speak to Palmer Smith about her book The Butterfly Bruises, a collection of poems and short stories, available to buy directly from the publisher here: https://pressdionysus.com/product/palmer-smith-the-butterfly-bruises/
Palmer and I discuss the relationship between her short stories and poems, Southern Gothic literature, her relationship to the two main settings of her work (NYC and the American South) and more!
