Following my recent review of Brian J. Showers‘ collection of stories, Old Albert, due soon from Swan River Press, and which illuminates a fictional(?) history of Larkhill, an old schoolhouse building that still exists in Rathmines, Dublin, I’ve just interviewed the author. Amongst other things, we talk about the challenge of seamlessly blending fact and fiction, the effect of ambiguity in supernatural fiction, and the differences between modern mainstream horror and the macabre. I’ll post the full interview on this site soon, but in the meantime, check it out here.
