Ep. 35 Edogawa Ranpo Short Stories

On this Pulp Fictions episode, hosts John Cribbs & Christopher
Funderburg discuss five short stories from Japanese writer Edogawa
Ranpo, the master of "ero guro nansensu" or "erotic, grotesque
nonsense." One of the true masters of the murky border where horror
fiction bleeds into crime fiction, Ranpo is one of the 20th
century's greatest genre fiction writers whose name deserves to be
spoken alongside Poe & Lovecraft.
