    Creatives: Goodnight Monsters with Suzanne Junered

    Ria speaks with author Suzanne Junered about feminine rage, motherhood, the patriarchy and unreliable narrators as they discuss Suzanne's book Goodnight Monsters. Ria is very excited because she loved the book but don't worry, she calms down after the first ten minutes and both Ria and Suzanne have a great chat exploring the themes of the book and somehow Ria manages to get in a Studio Ghibli reference despite Goodnight Monsters absolutely not being a children's book. They also discuss a wonderful short film written and produced by Femme On co-host Alyson Shelton, To Hold the Night. Find out more about this amazing film (and Alyson): https://www.alysonshelton.com/to-hold-the-night-film.html#/ Find out more about Suzanne and her work: https://suzannejunered.com/ About the book: Southern suburban housewife Lia and her husband Evan have long dreamed of becoming parents—but when a pregnancy test shows positive, Lia questions whether she wants the child and keeps her pregnancy a secret. As she’s holding new life inside, she intentionally surrounds herself with death by blackmailing her way into a job at a forensic anthropology center endearingly called The Body Farm. At The Farm, monsters emerge from within Lia—the desire to kill—and she begins daydreaming about murder. Because fantasizing never hurt anyone. Or so she thinks. Then a body donation to The Farm turns out to be someone she’s imagined killing, and reality and fantasy begin to blur. As people around her begin to die, Lia loses trust in her loved ones and herself . . . and ultimately must put her monsters to bed. Find out more: https://suzannejunered.com/books/
