Spinning On Air


Episode 13 — Kelly Link Reads “Catskin”

October 19, 2018

Author Kelly Link reads her story “Catskin,” a dream-like tale for grown-ups about witches, their children, and their cats. In “Catskin” Link casts a spell that combines urgent emotions, human insight, supernatural fantasy, and vivid images. This reading was recorded for Spinning On Air in 2002, before the story was published. David Garland reworked that original recording to create this fresh, new presentation, which includes a few musical flourishes by Garland. The reading is followed by a brief interview about the story.
