We are delighted to be welcoming award-winning writer, Lottie Mills , on Tuesday 21st May at 7pm as she discusses her darkly beguiling and beautifully spun collection of haunting fairy tales, Monstrum.In Lottie Mills’ modern fairy tales, a father and daughter build a life for themselves on an isolated beach, only to collide painfully with the outside world when their secret refuge is discovered.
A young disabled woman opts to receive a perfect, pain-free body, but soon finds herself haunted by the one she cast off.
A travelling circus master discovers the ideal addition to his cabinet of curiosities. But it isn’t long before the star of the show sets out to take her revenge.
Lottie Mills’ stories capture the experience of characters excluded by a society that cannot accept their difference. Eerie, fantastical and hugely ambitious, this collection announces the arrival of an outstanding young voice.
Perfect for fans of Angela Carter, Leonora Carrington and Mariana Enriquez.
