Hvad er ekstrem horror er for en størrelse og hvorfor den spiller en vigtig rolle i, ikke bare litteraturen, men alle genrer og vores liv uden for medierne?
Samtalen er rettet mod et voksent publikum med stærke maver. Eller som bare vil prøve deres grænser af. 📚 💙

Sir Terry Pratchett var den elskede forfatter af mere en 50 bestseller bøger. Han blev især berømt for sin Discworld serie af humoristiske fantasy historier fyldt med hekse der (næsten) ikke bruger magi, troldmænd der helst ikke rejser uden for universitetets mange vægge, og meget, meget andet.
