Hi all,
In this episode of The Interview, Leah Eichler and Susan Catto discuss the controversy over the film, Blonde, and the bizarre critique of Joyce Carol Oates, who wrote the novel, Blonde, on which the film is based. It all gets very meta.
We also chat about banned book week, and our fav banned books (yay, who doesn’t love a banned book?!) Some highlights: Maus, 1984, Lolita and The Handmaid’s Tale, naturally. Would Lolita be published today? Let us know your thoughts.
We also discuss the Booker shortlist, which has some surprises.
Don’t forget to submit your work to our short story contest. Also, if you have questions or want to appear on a podcast, email us at editor@esotericamag.com.
Until next week, my lovelies.
