Christmas TV previews - Na Lumière Gaelacha - Barrowbeck by Andrew Michael Hurley

As the film adaptation of Starve Acre is released we speak to Andrew Michael Hurley about the origins and evolving life of his much loved novel. Set in the seventies, in the deceptive and unforgiving northern landscapes that fill Andrew's work, Starve Acre is the story of a family with a bitter inheritance. Sudden tragedy leads to costly obsession and primeval forces are unearthed in an unnerving and sinister return, truly fertile ground for cinema.Directed by Daniel Kokotaljo (who many of you will know from his fantastic feature debut Apostasy) and starring Matt Smith and Morfydd Clark it is the perfect night out as the seasons change and the darkness draws in. Starve Acre is published by John Murray 'Genuinely and brilliantly disturbing.' Roddy Doyle@fieldzine www.fieldzine.comwww.patreon.com/fieldzine

Amberlee and Kim continue advent with The Old Play by Andrew Michael Hurley.

DARK MYSTERIES Tuesday and Friday at 2am CET - Wednesday and Friday at 1pm CET (podcast on Sundays). This program is hosted by Madeleine d'Este. This week, Madeleine talks about the book "The Between" by Tananarive Due.

This week I'm recording very close to home with Andrew Michael Hurley. Andrew burst onto the folk-horror scene with subtle aplomb (can one burst subtly?) back in 2014, with The Loney. That slice of weirdness was set in the very town in which I spent my wet, dismal childhood holidays. It conjured shivers in more ways than one. Now he is here to talk about the reissue of his 2019 novel, Starve Acre. It's a bleak, bitter, wintery tale of isolation, grief and ritual, set in the Yorkshire Dales. Where I also spent some holidays – does Andrew know something I don't? Hmmmm?We talk about his relationship with folk horror, and how it helps us express our communal British angst. We make comparisons to some unexpected movies, discuss authorial freedom, and talk about deep knowledge, invented lore and horror as replacement for spirituality. It's all a good excuse to yell about the government. Enjoy!Starve Acre was re-issued by Penguin on July 4th.Other books mentioned in this episode include:The Loney (2014), by Andrew Michael HurleyElmet (2017), by Fiona MozleyThe Gallows Pole (2017), by Benjamin MyersWaterland (1983), by Graham SwiftCold Hand in Mine (1975), by Robert AickmanSupport Talking Scared on Patreon Come talk books on Twitter @talkscaredpod, on Instagram, or email direct to talkingscaredpod@gmail.com Support the show

Alex has been admiring Billie Eilish's new look and they discuss the controversy surrounding this transition from iconic look to iconic look.

Rhiannon has been reading the beautiful book ‘Where the Crawdads Sing' and has fallen in love with the use of the natural world in Delia Owen's writing. Alex has immersed herself in the world of fantasy with ‘Shadow and Bone', a new and thrilling universe filled with darkness, magic and Ben Barnes' eyes. Rhiannon discusses a beloved podcast by siblings Jessie and Bebe Cave whilst Alex has been unsettling herself with the beautiful novel ‘Starve Acre'.

The worst thing possible has happened. Richard and Juliette Willoughby's son, Ewan, has died suddenly at the age of five. Starve Acre, their house by the moors, was to be full of life, but is now a haunted place. Juliette, convinced Ewan still lives there in some form, seeks the help of the Beacons, a seemingly benevolent group of occultists. Richard, to try and keep the boy out of his mind, has turned his attention to the field opposite the house, where he patiently digs the barren dirt in search of a legendary oak tree. Starve Acre is a devastating new novel by the author of the prize-winning bestseller The Loney. It is a novel about the way in which grief splits the world in two and how, in searching for hope, we can so easily unearth horror.

Somewhere high up in the North Pennines, between everywhere and nowhere at all, is Weardale, a remote northern dale. It’s a place of old lead mines, deep worked out limestone quarries, and hill farming; the home of day-dreamers, explorers, incomers, artists, philosophers, sky-watchers, story tellers and travellers. Over a series of ten exclusive interviews with writers and poets Caroline goes in search of what it means to live in England’s last wilderness. In episode three, Caroline looks at the thin divide between religion, folklore and witchcraft, as well as the ‘othering’ of outsiders and incomers, with local resident John Gall and horror writer Andrew Michael Hurley. Andrew Michael Hurley’s Costa Award-winning novel The Loney – set in an another rural northern landscape – wavers in an unsettling place between the supernatural and the merely strange. Narrated and recorded by Caroline Beck Produced by Jay Sykes Ten Words for a Northern Landscape is commissioned Northern Heartlands and produced as part of Durham Book Festival, a Durham County Council event. The recording was made possible by funding and support from the National Lottery Heritage Fund and Arts Council England. Look out for Ten Words for a Northern Landscape on the New Writing North podcast and Durham Book Festival website. #10wordspodcast

You don't start a new podcast season at this time of year without injecting some thrills and chills. Stephen Chbosky, author of The Perks of Being A Wallflower has made us wait 20 years for another novel but with Imaginary Friend he's back with a bang.

We also get to hear a genuine ghostly encounter from Jeanette Winterson who will have you checking the doors and windows before bedtime. And Andrew Michael Hurley shares his own fascinations with death and the afterlife and why we're all a little bit obsessed with what happens next. Books mentioned: Imaginary Friend, Starve Acre, Frankissstein, Ghost Stories, Rivers of London, Thin Air.

Andrew Michael Hurley talks to Mariella Frostrup about new folk horror novel Starve Acre

An interview with author Andrew Michael Hurley, whose debut novel The Loney won the Nibbie for Book of the Year in 2016. Andrew chats to Cathy about his soon-to-be released third novel Starve Acre, a Gothic tale of grief and loss set against the haunting backdrop of the Yorkshire moors.

Hosted by acclaimed author Cathy Rentzenbrink, the tenth edition of The Bookseller Podcast features interviews with two authors whose books are being published this month: debut novelist Okechukwu Nzelu talks about his coming of age story The Private Joys of Mnenna Maloney, while Andrew Michael Hurley discusses his latest Gothic tale Starve Acre. The Bookseller's Caroline Sanderson and Tom Tivnan chat about Super Thursday, one of the busiest days of the publishing calendar, and the new and notable titles coming out in the run up to Christmas. In our new section we meet Helen Stanton from Forum Books, located in the picturesque village of Corbridge in Northumberland. Helen talks to Nigel about the shop, the area, and the books that she recommends. Cathy and Nigel share the events they're most looking forward to this month on Bookgig, including Cheltenham Literature Festival, a talk from Harry Potter illustrator Jim Kay and more. And playing us out – an extract from The Giver of Stars by Jojo Moyes. The Bookseller Podcast is a Heavy Entertainment Production.

Andrew Michael Hurley discusses his book The Loney which won the Costa First Novel Award in 2015. Recorded with an audience at the Liverpool Literary Festival and presented by James Naughtie. First published in a print run of just 300 copies by a small press, The Loney went on to win The Costa First Novel Award and Book of the Year at the British Book Industry Awards 2015. This gothic novel is set on a bleak stretch of the Lancashire coast near Morecambe Bay called The Loney, which is infamous for its dangerous waters. In 1976, The congregation of St Jude’s Catholic church in London head north, on pilgrimage to a holy shrine, near The Loney, hoping to cure Hanny, a boy who’s been mute since birth. His brother, who is unnamed throughout the novel, narrates the story in the present day. The retreat is led by the newly installed parish priest, Father Bernard McGill, who struggles to shake off the ghost of his predecessor, the hardline Father Wilfred. Meanwhile, the rain sweeps in off the sea and the tides come and go, shifting the sands, burying and obscuring. There's a mysterious death at the heart of the novel; complicated and destructive family relationships, and running through it all a story of faith and superstition, imagination and fear. To the author's delight it was described as 'an amazing piece of fiction' by the master of modern gothic himself, Stephen King. Presenter : James Naughtie Interviewed guest : Andrew Michael Hurley Producer : Dymphna Flynn December's Bookclub choice : The Interestings by Meg Wolitzer (2013)

Norwegian author Karl Ove Knausgaard discusses A Death in the Family, which is the first part of My Struggle, his series of memoirs which have a devoted following. Already a successful novelist in his native Norway, almost ten years ago Knausgaard embarked on a huge project: a first person narrative about his life. In A Death in the Family he writes with painful honesty about his childhood and teenage years, his infatuation with rock music, his relationship with his loving yet almost invisible mother and his distant and dangerously unpredictable father, and then his bewilderment and grief on his father's death. Becoming a father himself, he has to balance the demands of caring for a young family with his determination to write great literature. The series is an exploration of the author’s past from which emerges a universal story of the struggles, great and small, that we all face in our lives. Karl Ove Knausgaard writes with honesty about his upbringing, causing ructions in his family. He says he always knew that whatever he wrote, he would have to be able to look his family members in the eye. My Struggle finally ran to six volumes, and the last one The End, has just been published in the UK. The series became a literary sensation in his native Norway as well as around the world. Presented by James Naughtie and recorded with a group of invited readers.

As nights grow darker, we share our favourite horror novels and ghostly tales – and the author of The Loney joins us to talk about his eerie new novel

We’re still shaking two years after reading The Loney – Andrew Michael Hurley’s truly terrifying debut.  His second novel, Devil’s Day, promises to be just as dark.  Again he’s exploring the spare landscape of the northwest.   Very little changes in the Endlands.  Every autumn, John Pentecost returns to the farm where he grew up to help gather the sheep down from the moors for the winter.  Each year, his grandfather, the Gaffer, would redraw the boundary lines of the village, with pen and paper, but also through the remembrance of tales and timeless communal rituals, which keep the sheep safe from the Devil. But this year, the Gaffer has died and John's new wife, Katherine, accompanies him for the first time. As the farmers of the Endlands bury the Gaffer, and prepare to gather the sheep, they begin to wonder whether they've let the Devil in after all . . .
