  • Metamorphosis part 2 - I express myself through being gross

    The second part of Franz Kafka's 'Metamorphosis', wow, a mental breakdown, a public appeal and sickening apples, the concluding part of Metamorphosis has all the emotions!

    We really enjoyed this surreal short story, perfect pit stop before we start getting festive! Hope you enjoy it too!

    Female comedians take a new look at classical literature.

  • To Kill a Mockingbird part 7 - Who's Pork Bradley?

    Final part! Thank you for joining us on probably one of the most challenging reads we've tried to tackle. We hope we did an OK job. I've said it before and I'll say it again, that two extremely enlightening books to read in succession about racism are "The Narrative of William W. Brown. A Fugitive Slave" by William W. Brown and "Why I'm no longer talking to white people about race" by Reni Eddo-Lodge; they're written 170 years apart, but it's particularly apparent in the foreword of Brown's text how similar these books are and how much more work we have to do. We are not the voices you need or should be coming to for an education on racism, but in a world where we need to be actively anti-racist we want to do our part to shine a light on problematic thought patterns (i.e. white saviourism and people of colour's stories being told by white people) which have previously been accepted as shining examples of the war on racism.

    Thank you again, and we can't wait to start our next read and start getting spooky!
