Episode Thirty One - Survivor Type w/Ally Wilkes (Author of All the White Spaces, Where the Dead Wait)

from The Constant Reader Podcast - The Canon of Stephen King · host Richard Sheppard

I am joined by Ally Wilkes on an expedition very few Stephen King fans will forget - into the heart of darkness and autocannibalism in Survivor Type. This grisly morsel was the grossout highlight of King's collection Skeleton Crew. It was recently turned into an animated episode of Shudder's Creepshow to pretty good effect. Once read, this one isn't easily forgotten, certainly not by Ally Wilkes, the writer of one of my favourite books of last year, All the White Spaces. Ally and I talk eating long pig, arctic expeditions and the ineffable lure of the unknown spaces for a writer. I am really looking forward to her next book, the similarly chilly sounding Where the Dead Wait, and thoroughly recommend you pick up All the White Spaces in preparation....
