Papercut

Here's to Season 2. Watch us as we recount our favourite (and least favourite) episodes as well as future projects. Yes, we really are doing the "lazy recap" episode. Again...

Never say Papercut isn't progressive. This episode dives into May Alcott's semi-autobiographical novel about four sisters as they grow, live, love and laugh.

What book could have caused so much outrage that even Uncle Sam had to ban it? Find out on this edition of Papercut.

Dostoyevsky's final novel, The Brothers Karamazov follows 3 brothers and the rocky relationship they share with their father. Part murder mystery, part philosophical mouthpiece, the novel explores morality and religion through conversations between the brothers and the ultimate consequences of their beliefs.

What does it mean to be a gentleman? A Gentleman in Moscow explores the life of Count Rostov who is placed under house arrest during the Russian Revolution for being a lord at the wrong place at the wrong time. Part love letter to Russia, the novel shows the Count's life behind bars as Russia experiences its most tumultuous years. What now, Papercut?

Underwater fish, monsters, savages and Atlantis. What does Papercut have to say about 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea?

A book about the American Civil War without a focus on slavery? That must be a joke right? Maybe not as we shall see in this episode of Papercut!

Set in an alternate history where Germany and Japan won the Second World War, The Man in The High Castle follows the lives of five people as they set about their lives in this New World Order. One character searches for the Man in the High Castle himself, who wrote a scathing novel about an impossible world - one where the allies had won WWII. How does Papercut deal with this?

Are human beings truly and fundamentally evil to the core? How do we explain the atrocities of the Holocaust? Or even studies into evil like the Stanford Prison experiment? What if our worldview on humanity is plain and simply wrong? Find out in this edition of Papercut.

We loved the first one so much we had to do it again. Dear listener, thank you again for your recommendation, we had a great time recording this. We hope you enjoy our take on this book.
