You probably know Kristen Arnett from her bestselling 2019 novel Mostly Dead Things. But I first discovered her work in the pages of Felt in the Jaw, her 2017 collection of short stories documenting “the lives of queer women and their families in the light of the bleak Florida sun.” There’s so much more of the grotesque and ominous in these tales, though; they’d do Flannery O’Connor proud. I discuss them with the author herself on this first episode of Season 4.
