For a long time witches were thought of as entirely evil, tools of the devil. Later, they were reclaimed and cast as innocent healers and midwives. But could the truth lie outwith this simple binary? Kiran Millwood Hargrave’s adult debut novel The Mercies explores self-sufficient womanhood and sexual suspicion, while Rebecca Tamás’s debut poetry collection WITCH is a visceral, darkly funny journey. Join their conversation with author and festival Guest Curator Kirsty Logan to delve into witches, feminism, horror and power. Part of the Understories: Reclaiming the stories we think we know strand curated by Kirsty Logan
