“The Lake,” a television series set in cottage country, just completed its second season on Amazon Prime. Creator and writer, Julian Doucet, gives us a sneak peek into the series, shot on location in and around North Bay, Ont., and shares his own experience as a cottager. Then, we turn to a term all cottagers know well: kitsch. We’ll hear an essay by Charles Wilkins that will make you cherish all of your tchotchkes.  Special thanks to: Julian Doucet, creator and writer of “The Lake” Articles referenced: “Exploring the Golden Age of Kitsch” by Charles Wilkins (Cottage Life magazine, March 1991) Sources: The Lake, on Amazon Prime Connect with Cottage Life: cottagelife.comFacebook: www.facebook.com/cottagelife/Instagram: @cottagelifePinterest: www.pinterest.ca/cottagelife/Youtube: www.youtube.com/user/CottageLifeMagazine/ Hosted on Acast.
