S.T. Joshi’s blog has updated with a long post on his activities, including a link to a 10-minute MP3 interview between a Penguin Classics Editor, Elda Rotor, and Joshi. The second half of the podcast is a del Toro interview.
I found his mention of this forthcoming book especially interesting…
“John C. Tibbetts’s The Gothic Imagination (Palgrave Macmillan, 2011), a substantial collection of interviews with past and current figures in the horror field.”
It seems The Gothic Imagination will be shipping in a few weeks.
