I have a question that's been bothering me for a while that I'd like to put to the thread: why isn't Caitlin Kiernan known much outside of horror/weird fiction circles? I've been reading both her novels and short fiction for a few years know, and it seems like they should be the sort of thing that develops a robust cult. She's got her own set of locations, her own interpretation on Lovecraft's ideas (she's the only one I ever seen succeed in integrating human sexuality with Lovecraftian horror), protagonists that would appeal to the more progressive-minded, to name a few. Heck, she even cut her teeth writing a spinoff comic series for Neil Gaiman's Sandman comics back in the 1990s. And yet, in spite of all this, I've barely seen anyone outside of academics and other writers discuss her work. Even Ligotti gets more play than her these days. Mind you, given that her novels The Red Tree and The Drowning Girl are both being adapted into movies, there might be more of a groundswell around her in the future. Even so, why the obscurity now?
