29 – Where the Heights Are Wuther and the Love is Gritty

Our twenty-ninth episode is out!

This episode, we’re taking a turn into the classics by reviewing two retellings of Emily Brontë’s gothic novel Wuthering Heights: Black Spring by Alison Croggon and What Souls Are Made Of by Tasha Suri. We indulge our inner English majors by getting very excited about cycles of tragedy, ghosts, and doomed romance while also discussing how the novels put their own spin on a classic work of literature. As always, you can listen on Podbean, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and more.
