Save Me From My Shelf

Episode 22 - Jekyll and Hyde


Listen Later

Two friends and academics recap classic literature and take it off its pedestal. Our twenty-second episode is one extended queer reading--full of dodgy back doors, debauchery-filled strolls, and a vicious debate about if a mirror is weird or not--as we recap Robert Louis Stevenson's science fiction novella, The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde (1886).

Episode theme: Franz Liszt, 'Totentanz'.
