>'...it has always been much easier to give a name to the evil without than to locate the terror within.' - James Baldwin [[Wilk, Elvia (2022) Death By Landscape]]
> ' What kind of botanical thriller plot suits this era? What role should the plants play in the story? Does nature stand witness and offer answers, as in *The Kirlinan Witness*? Or is nature going to take revenge for the destruction wreaked, as in gothic plant horror? I think a thriller for now might rather look like a murder mystery in which murderer, witness, detective, and victim are all collapsed into one.' - Elvia Wilk
