Kristen Arnett in conversation with Alexander Chee for MOSTLY DEAD THINGS
We had the pleasure of hosting Kristen Arnett for the paperback release of her novel, Mostly Dead Things, with writer Alexander Chee.
When her father commits suicide, Jessa-Lynn Morton scrambles to manage his taxidermy business and keep her family from falling apart. With macabre humor, lush prose, and the heavy, swamp-like atmosphere of Florida summers, Mostly Dead Things explores one family’s grief amid all the sadness, humor, physicality, and strangeness of life. A hypnotic debut that is a love letter to Florida. If you missed Kristen Arnett’s conversation with Alexander Chee about the novel, you can watch it here.
