Apocalist Book Club Ep. 35: THE MACHINE STOPS by E. M. Forster


Listen Later

Raven went back in time to 1909 to read the novella THE MACHINE STOPS with friend of the Apoc-pod, writer and virologist John Skylar!

E. M. Forster was very queer (he wrote MAURICE, after all) and we suspect he had a looking glass into the future because he nailed Zoom Fatigue. Come for a society that has forgotten how to repair the Machine that does EVERYTHING for them, stay for trying to avert an apocalypse with a Strongly Worded Complaint.

You can check out John Skylar's writing at Covid Transmissions.
