A new conference on the monstrous. 1st Global Conference on Monstrous Geographies: places and spaces of monstrosity. 18th – 20th July 2012, University of Oxford, UK…
“What is the relationship between the monstrous and the geographic – those places monsters inhabit, but also places that are configured as being monstrous in and of themselves?”
Interesting. Sadly the deadline for papers has long passed, or I might have submitted something cut from my most recent book on Lovecraft and New York City. It looks like it would cost me about £500 to attend. If a kind benefactor would care to donate that amount, I can guarantee a substantial plain English 6,000+ word report soon after the event.
If I was rich, I would send you (and me!) in a heartbeat.
