The Triumph of the Spider Monkey (1974) - a podcast by Bowman & the BFG

"The Triumph of the Spider Monkey" is the chaotic narrative of Bobby Gotteson, whose repressive lust and murderous rage reach their fever-pitch following a hubris-led journey to California. All but disowned by its author, Joyce Carol Oates, we crack the covers on a new season of LTP with a look at this stylish, often brutal novel, recently resurrected from obscurity by Hard Case Crime. We also take a look at "Love, Careless Love", Oates' never-before collected companion novella.
