The Infinite Library

Episode 11 - "Nightwood" by Djuna Barnes (feat. Ana)


Listen Later

This week on the Infinite Library, we're talking about modern love (as in "modernism", get it?). John's girlfriend Ana joins the Book Boys to talk about Djuna Barnes' classic of lesbian literature. We talk about why this book isn't as well known as its peers, Freud and fascism, and whether or not books are supposed to teach us things. We hope you'll enjoy this discussion.


Note: We had some audio issues with this episode. We apologize for the quality here and we're working hard to figure out how to solve these problems for future episodes.
