Black horror is having a big moment. A critic who profiled its pioneer, Tananarive Due, reflects on the booming genre — and other books highlights of the week.
Good morning, and welcome to the L.A. Times Book Club newsletter. I’m Boris Kachka, the books editor at the Los Angeles Times, and as Halloween and Día de Muertos creep ever closer, I’m thinking about the simple pleasures of a good jump scare. One of the clearest trends of the last 25 years has been the increased popularity and richness of speculative fiction — and all its subgenres — as a medium for telling the stories of people whom literature had long marginalized.
As Times reporter Carlos de Loera and I wrote, the Frankfurt Book Fair canceled a prize presentation to Palestinian author Adania Shibli, leading 1,000 authors and publishers to sign an open letter protesting the move. And this week, L.A. author Viet Thanh Nguyen's event at New York’s 92NY was canceled at the last minute — a move spurred by his signing of a different open letter as well as his support for the pro-Palestinian BDS movement.
