SUMMARY:Tamika Thompson in conversation with Casey Dunn about Tamika's new horror novel - The Curse of Hester Gardens
DESCRIPTION:Thursday April 30th  7:00 to 8:00 pm\n\nCasey Dunn lives on a Southern Oregon farm and is a local author of Southern Gothic Suspense\, with Booklist comparing her novel\, Silence on Cold River to Silence of the Lambs. She’s excited to be in conversation with Tamika Thompson\, dubbed “the queen of ‘social horror'” by Bookstr\, about Thompson‘s debut gothic novel set in a public housing project. The two will discuss the recent evolution of gothic literature\, balancing the supernatural with realism within their work\, and navigating genre labels\, including thriller\, horror\, mystery\, and suspense.\n\nAbout the book: “Ringing with lyricism and suspense\, The Curse of Hester Gardens is a compelling vision of the horror of trying to raise sons in public housing haunted by violence. Despite ghosts and the uncanny\, the true terror is the trap of poverty\, which tests a mother’s love to its limits. Tamika Thompson‘s sharp characterization and insightful storytelling make this a must-read.” \n—Tananarive Due\, Los Angeles Book Prize and Bram Stoker Award winner\, THE REFORMATORY
