Scotty talks to author Rachel Eve Moulton about her acclaimed novels "Tinfoil Butterfly" (2019) and "The Insatiable Volt Sisters" (2023), both from MCD x FSG Books. Along the way they discuss Rachel's upbringing in Antioch, Ohio, her early influences from Flannery O'Connor to Stephen King, the importance of place in her work, the culture shock of moving from Rhode Island to New Mexico, how horror fiction can free an author from the need to write in metaphor, the beauty of and terror of exploring fictional relationships, the ickiness of teeth, and much more.
They also talk about the brilliant teen werewolf movie "Ginger Snaps," and how the film's sibling dynamic informed that in "The Insatiable Volt Sisters."
