'The article offers the author's insights on the link of horror, which refers to expression of shock, repulsion, and fear, to literature. Topics discussed include the perspectives of American author Caitlin R. Kiernan regarding the definition of horror as an emotion, her book "The Red Tree" which is about a grieving novelist trap in a farmhouse in Rhode Island, and the implication of horror for the illusion of readers.'

    'W ith the release of ‘Formation’ and Beyonce’s performance at this year’s Super Bowl, the Black Lives Matter (BLM) campaign pierced living rooms across the United States. Complete with Black Panther salute and iconography, accompanied by a film clip with a hurricane-drenched landscape and graffiti reading ‘stop shooting us’, a movement that had been demonised by the mainstream media and the right was given a heroic performance in what is, arguably, capitalism’s ultimate spectacle.' (Jacinda Woodhead : Editorial introduction)
