Tea or Books? #66: Domestic Books vs Worldly Books and Elizabeth Bowen vs Elizabeth Taylor
Elizabeth Bowen, Elizabeth Taylor, and venturing into the worldly…
https://www.stuckinabook.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Tea-or-Books-episode-66.mp3
In the first half of this episode, we look at… domestic books vs worldly books? Or something like that? We never quite worked out what we meant, but we still had things to say. In the second half, we look at two collections of short stories by Elizabeths – Elizabeth Taylor’s The Devastating Boys and a collection of Elizabeth Bowen’s stories called The Demon Lover (UK edition) and Ivy Gripped The Steps (US edition). I wasn’t sure we’d manage to disentangle them, but I think we got there.
