Four Books a Fortnight

EP: Getting Bloody Smashing Machines


Listen Later

Do we sometimes read books because they have a hot-pink cover? We do. But we're glad we did! Kathy Acker is a crazy badass and her cult classic gets us started on a white-hot episode full of machine smashing and sea scraping. This is about as wide-ranging as an episode gets. This fortnight, we read:

  1. "Blood and Guts in High School," by Kathy Acker
  2. "The Infamous Gilberts," by Angela Tomaski
  3. "Against the Machine," by Paul Kingsnorth
  4. "Seascraper," by Benjamin Wood

What sound effects did we give each of these books? You'll just have to listen and find out!
