Stephanie thinks Hannah will love–or at least, not hate–Laura Sebastian’s take on the Arthurian legend, Half Sick of Shadows. Will Stephanie’s prediction, unlike many of the Lady of Shalott’s visions in the novel, come true?
Elaine, only daughter of the kingdom of Shalott, has a secret: she sees visions of the future. After leaving her oppressive mother in the court of Camelot, Elaine grows up on the fay-inhabited island of Avalon alongside Arthur, Lancelot, Guinevere, and Morgana. When the five friends must return to court to help Arthur claim his throne, Elaine’s visions of the future will be tested, and the heavy weight of all their choices will continually haunt her. Join Stephanie and Hannah this week as they discuss this female-centered revision of the story of Camelot and why they would definitely not want to see the future.
