About this listen

Ee-i, adio spooky kids, and welcome to our Robert Cormier episode, in which Ren Wednesday and Adam Whybray discuss three books by the American writer known for his 'deeply pessimistic novels'. We talk about I Am The Cheese from 1977, Fade from 1988 and The Rag and Bone Shop from 2001 (published posthumously), an unsettling, ambitious and chewy trio of novels that lean into the 'disturbing' element of our 'creepy, spooky and disturbing' purview. Transcript available here: https://stillscared.podigee.io/74-robert-cormier Content note: General discussion of dark themes and we read an extract from I Am The Cheese in which the protagonist is chased by a dog and it might be a bit intense for listeners afraid of dogs.
