Ep 178 - Lit Crit - Hit It or Quit It?
Our beloved Book Club has already featured one Great Novel that was kind of a snooze, and one International Bestseller that completely sucked. But who’s to say? What makes a book great, and what makes it “a classic,” and - most importantly - how can we sound smart at parties when literature comes up? The University of Chicago’s Dr. Timothy Campbell is here to sort it all out. Plus, open wide - it’s time for another tasty round of Potluck Info Party!
GUEST
Dr. Timothy Campbell
Associate Professor & Director of Undergraduate Studies
