Red Flags and Road Trips: Elizabeth Devecchi’s View Through a Twisted Lens
Manage episode 497200247 series 2992545
In this episode, Vincent Midgard is joined by author Elizabeth Devecchi to discuss her slow-burn psychological thriller A Twist of the Lens. They explore the novel’s complex themes of childhood manipulation, familial tension, and the subtle grooming that isn’t sexual—but is no less horrifying. Elizabeth shares the inspiration behind her enigmatic protagonist Charlie, the real-life story that shaped one of the novel’s most unsettling scenes, and how moral grayness anchors her work.
The conversation also dives into writing emotional subtext, converting criminal skill sets into redemption arcs, and crafting antagonists who live on in the psyche long after the final page. Along the way, Elizabeth reveals how motorcycles, accountability groups, crocheted Krakens, and creepy house pets all play a role in her creative life.
