Mary Robinette Kowal wrote The Glamourist Histories series, among many other works. In this episode we focus on how this series is mannerpunk, what the genre entails, and how Mary approaches writing.
A highlight for me was our discussion about Mary's vintage typewriters, so be sure to check the video version on YouTube for a glimpse at those!
Mary's work could also be described as fantasy of manners, alternate history, ghostpunk, spacepunk (or mercurypunk, or atompunk!), and maybe even ecopunk.
(So many punks, not enough time!)
