Taboo Topics: Uncomfortable Yet? (S01E4 Dark Fiction)
Show Notes

Welcome to this week's episode where we delve into the macabre and taboo aspects of storytelling. Brace yourselves, as we delve into themes that will send shivers down your spine. We'll be exploring the depths of necrophilia, the horror of snuff films, the exploitation of children, and the grief that haunts us all. This is fiction like you've never experienced it before. So, turn off the lights, sit back and get ready to be uncomfortably educated.  The books we will discuss are:

  • Exquisite Corpse by Poppy Z. Brite
  • American Psycho by Bret Easton Ellis 
  • Pretty Girls by Karen Slaughter
  • Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov 

TW and SPOILERS for all episodes, listen at your own discretion.
