About this episode
Attention Anglophiles (and lovers of clever, engrossing books): This episode is for you! Hosts Sarah Bowen Shea and Ellison Weist explore the themes of four new novels all set in or around England’s capital city. Buckle up: Two are riveting, contemporary page-turners, including the latest from the author of 2012’s Capital. The other two are period pieces laced with mystery and romance. The hosts delve into the perception of reality and seeing it through a media lens. The novels discussed:
Look What You Made Me Do: John Lanchester
The Kindness of Strangers: Emma Garman
Five: Ilona Bannister
A Perfect Hand: Ayelet Waldman
