About this listen

 In this lush and provocative second episode, Roxie examines the deeper mythological and psychological layers of The Fate of Ophelia.

From sonic design to poetic subtext, Roxie reveals how Swift transforms centuries of male-authored tragedy into a shimmering manifesto of female empowerment, authorship, and emotional sovereignty.
