Getting Literate

Getting Blithering Drunk with Wuthering Heights


Listen Later

This week on Getting Literate, Katie and Julia traipse about the misty moors of Wuthering Heights, and try their best to survive reading it. The gals chat about gossipy bitches, whether or not Heathcliff is black, and all of the mental illness that runs rampant in this novel. Julia attempts to decode her drunken self's writing about weak male characters, while Katie struggles with just knowing which character was speaking when. PLUS: dying after walking 4 miles, the pros and cons of metafiction, and "ejaculate" as the worst verb to ever exist. As always, there's definitely spoilers, so proceed with caution.


This week's book was Wuthering Heights, by Emily Brontë. More info at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emily_Bront%C3%AB .

 

Intro and outro music by Julia M.
