Episode 62: Spinster Lit


Listen Later

This week, we celebrate Spinster September by discussing spinster lit with Nora (pear.jelly). We chat about spinster tropes and stereotypes, ways in which the term is evolving, and dig into why these women appeal to so many of us. And, of course, we each share some of our favorite examples from literature.   For complete shownotes, please sign up for The Mookse and the Gripes Podcast Newsletter.
