I completely forgot to post about this two weeks ago. Our last episode of Apostrophe Cast featured Shane Jones.  He read a good chunk of his sublime Lightboxes for us. The thing I like about Shane’s work is that he is not afraid to jump into the deep end of fantasy. He borrows generously from childhood fancies, much like Sabrina does (her new books is coming out from Saturnalia in a few months, which I am really looking forward to), and uses it to present a very threatening and immediate reality of his own creation.  My experience of reading his work in neither heady nor visceral; it’s an exploration of pathos. I’d like to write more about Lightboxes soon.

Here a link to Shane’s reading. Here’s a link to his Apostrophe Cast interview. Here’s a sweet picture of the author with a cardigan and a beard:
