Ep. 17: Classics We Love: Sense & Sensibility & Middlemarch
Listen now
Description
The great, big classics of Literature have been taught, debated over, dismissed, and then taught again in an attempt to answer one essential question: do we really need to still read this? In this series, this is the question that August and Kendra attempt to answer. They each choose one historically lauded work from the English canon and try to prove why it is still worth reading by going into what they love about them and why they are so culturally pervasive.
