We sit down with Rumpus contributor Owen King to talk about his latest book, Double Feature, paying homage to movies that are unintentionally funny, and only using research that gives a story meaning.
Owen King does an amazing thing in his debut novel Double Feature by making the stakes to these questions matter to his characters in a fundamental, identity-forming way; he clears the air of stuffy academic arguments or stoner philosophizing in order to ask why does storytelling matter? No small task, this.
