Listen Later

Author Mitchell S. Jackson returns for our book club discussion of Ling Ma's post-apocalyptic novel Severance. On this episode we try to piece together the story's timeline, unpack the ending, and we cast the TV show adaptation. We also discuss quote marks, capitalism, and the role of religion throughout the novel.

There are spoilers on this episode.

Be sure to listen to the end of today’s episode to find out what our December book club pick will be.
