Join the “utter madman,” Sam Rebelein and I as we discuss his latest release! “The Poorly Made and Other Things,” is out today from Titan Books in the UK and William Morrow Books in the US. Set in the same bizarre universe as his debut novel “Edenville,” this superb, albeit deeply, deeply strange, collection is comprised of 10 short stories as well as an intermittent one-sided, email exchange between an increasingly drunk sister (who seems to be onto something) and her brother.
Technical difficulties on my side aside, apologies, Sam and I have a brilliant conversation. We touch on:
- The history of Renfield County
- Where on Earth he gets his wacky ideas from
- A strange experience Sam had on the subway, and abandoned bath tubs
- The infamous Gummerfolk
- His upcoming novel “Galloway’s Gospel.”
- Balancing horror and humour
- Being bizarro… but not too bizarro
