Afro-Futurism: Sci-Fi, Fantasy, & Speculations "RENDERING THE DREAM: The Supernatural as Metaphor in the Works of Tananarive Due"

TANANARIVE DUE's novels The Living Blood (Pocket Books, 2001), My Soul to Keep (Harper Collins, 1997) and The Between (Harper Collins, 1995), are journeys into supernatural suspense - bringing a unique African-American flavor and sensibility to tales that keep readers awake at night. Her latest novel, The Good House, is "a terrifying story of supernatural suspense, as a woman searches for the inherited power that can save her hometown from evil forces." Due has a B.S. in journalism from Northwestern University and an M.A. in English literature from the University of Leeds, England, where she specialized in Nigerian literature as a Rotary Foundation Scholar. *THURSDAY EVENING 7PM STANFORD BOOKSTORE!
