Mariana Enríquez: Supernatural Terrors and Real-Life Monsters

On the years of dictatorship in Argentina, Mariana Enríquez said ‘I did not distinguish between reality and fiction because reality was worse than any fiction I could imagine’. Her gothic stories add gravity to that statement. Now, she discusses her most important English-language novel, Our Share of Night, a road trip from Buenos Aires to the Iguazu Falls, set against the military junta of the 70s and 80s. Today she speaks to award-winning novelist Kirsty Logan.

Mariana Enríquez is appearing remotely.
