![]() I was happy to interview Kiernan recently about “the weird.” As Peter Straub has written, “With The Drowning Girl, moves firmly into the new vanguard, still being formed, of our best and most artful authors of the gothic and fantastic.” You can read part of chapter one elsewhere on, as well as a story we posted a few months ago. Her latest novel, The Drowning Girl, is yet another masterpiece from this iconic author. Perhaps more than any other writer of the past thirty years, Kiernan places the reader somewhere alien and inhabits points of view that seem both luminous and edgy. In addition to her many award-winning novels and stories, Kiernan has written scientific papers that reflect her love of herpetology and paleontology, also reflected in her fiction. Kiernan (1964 – ) is one of the most original and audacious weird writers of her generation. ![]()
