Description
Jeanne and Jennifer wrap up this second season of Wild Olive with their conversation on Oscar Wilde, as part of this season's theme of "Queering The Bible". Together they discuss the concept "Man of Sorrows", life as poetry and how Wilde transformed misery into divinity.
It's an analyzation of two fascinating literary characters! Jennifer and Jeanne dissect the parallels between the Bathsheba, as found in The Book of Samuel, and her inspiration by the same name in Thomas Hardy's "Far From The Madding Crowd" (1874).
