The Book Club
More A-level bangers from The Book Club. ‘Those who go beneath the surface do so at their peril.’
The Common Reader
An excellent discussion of the enduringly fascinating Gulliver’s Travels. Zena Hitz is the founder of the Catherine Project, which sounds like something I should get involved with and therefore won’t.
The Honest Broker
Also with Zena Hitz.
How I Write
A conversation with Michael Pollan, whose new book is A World Appears: A Journey Into Consciousness.
The Lit Path
The first episode from Jack Aldane’s new Substack-based project, The Lit Path, also a discussion of Gulliver’s Travels – highly recommended.
The LRB Podcast
This kind of blue-chip LRB content is usually behind the paywall, but this series, Poetry and the Turning World, is free to listen. This is the most recent episode, about the weather in poetry.
Until next month.
