In today’s episode of Complicated Conversations, we welcome Hazel Hayes to discuss her new novel, Better By Far, a genre-bending story about love and loss, hope and heartbreak, and the healing to be found in life’s little limbos, those in-between spaces where you’re no longer who you were and not yet the person you will be.
We chat with Hazel about the concept of liminality and the importance of sitting with and processing grief; the connection between horror and love, and how both genres explore the human condition; the idea of soulmates and having an abundance mindset around love and connection; writing and the idea of leaving a piece of oneself on the page; and the role of astrology and spirituality as a way of finding meaning in cycles and community.
Better By Far is out now! Buy it, read it, share it, and listen to our spoiler-free chat wherever you get your podcasts!
