About this listen

Two friends and academics recap classic literature and take it off its pedestal.


This season, we are only looking at banned and controversial texts. In our sixty-fifth episode (which coincides with International Women's Day), we examine Margaret Attwood's dystopia about far-right misogyny, The Handmaid's Tale (1985). Turkey basters and Orwell klaxons at the ready!


Cover art © Catherine Wu.


Episode Theme: Gabriel Faure, 'Pie Jesu', Requiem.
