Paul G. Tremblay on ‘Knock at the Cabin’, Stephen King, and ‘The Pallbearers Club’ [The Losers’ Club Podcast]

One club welcomes another on the latest installment of The Losers’ Club’s On Writers series.

This week, co-hosts Randall Colburn and Mel Kassel chat with acclaimed novelist Paul G. Tremblay about last year’s The Pallbearers Club, a twisty tale of two loners that allows them both operate as unreliable narrators — one via his unpublished memoir, the other through the notes she leaves in its margins. It’s an unnerving and edifying story of friendship, obsession, and addiction, not to mention vampirism, be it of the literal or emotional kind.

In conversation, Tremblay unpacks his careful approach to ambiguity and the necessity he feels to earn his experiments with narrative. He also discusses Knock at the Cabin, the M. Night Shyamalan-directed adaptation of his Bram Stoker Award-winning novel The Cabin at the End of the World, and his experience as a novelist in Hollywood. Tremblay also teases his next novel, which centers around a “cursed” film production, and offers an update on the long-gestating film adaptation of his 2015 breakout A Head Full of Ghosts.
