Jennifer Frost
My fiction and poetry, sometimes inspired or underpinned by the dark origins of folk and fairy tales, infuses psychological realism with a subtly uncanny atmosphere. My character-driven pieces distill themes of longing and displacement, mapping the experiences of people haunted by their memories as they search for belonging.
