Beyond the Real: A Q&A with fiction writer Carl Napolitano
Carl Napolitano, a queer fiction writer from Little Rock, has only a handful of stories out in the world so far, but his premises are shockingly memorable. They treat the mystical and strange with the utmost frankness and acceptance. Magic materializes and characters just carry on and make do. In this Q&A, Napolitano reflects on the subjectivity of interpretation, his novel-in-progress and why a fantastical approach to storytelling is so appealing.
