S. 7 Ep. 152 - Dark Academia’s Haunts and Curses with Guest Lee Mandelo 10-26-22
from The Perks Of Being A Book Lover Podcast · host Amy Smalley and Carrie Vittitoe
To close out October this week, we chat with Lee Mandelo, author of Summer Sons, which recently went into paperback. This creepy novel is hard to categorize because it’s queer Southern Gothic, dark academia, and ghost story. It also touches on issues of race and class. The book is an amalgam of a lot of different ideas rolled into a complex story of friendship, grief, and family curses. We’re so glad Lee joined us to chat about their novel as well as an upcoming novella titled Feed Them Silence which comes out in spring 2023.
