🔒 Literary Rx — Books to Beat the Doldrums
Manage episode 455933786 series 2805882
Books are a time-tested cure-all, so in this week’s bonus episode Amy weighs a few of the titles that have helped her forget life's latest troubles and doubts … (sort of). She leaves no stone unturned in her quest for distraction, from Proust’s meandering sentences to a behind-the-scenes memoir about a beloved ’80s film and a charming, century-old suffrage novel that captures our current political zeitgeist. Rounding out the episode is a sneak peak at “lost ladies” we’ll be featuring in the coming year and Amy’s recitation of a poem by Adrienne Rich that’s perfectly suited to these strange times.
Mentioned in this episode
Meditations by Marcus Aurelius
When Things Fall Apart by Pema Chodron.
Remembrance of Things Past by Marcel Proust
Swann’s Way by Marcel Proust
