Former guest John joins me for the first of a six-part, monthly slow read of John Crowley's Little, Big.

This quirky, beautiful novel is sizeable. So over the next six months, we will be meeting and discussing each section of the book. Read along with us. Join our cute little book club dedicated to the greatest American fantasy novel ever.

This week, we talk about fantasy vs magical realism, Crowley's marginal position in American letters, genre tourists, and the horniness of the book.

And over at Back Matter on Patreon, John and I show tell some things that remind us of this first section of the book: https://www.patreon.com/GettingLit

John last joined us a few years back to talk about John Crowley's novella, In Blue. Check it out on Spotify:  https://open.spotify.com/episode/7o3l8U0Eb1UE4CzayHgazM?si=9fsk_8VFRBqCpN5hdzs7Eg
