Episode 01: We Have Conflicted Feelings About Margaret Atwood

from Shelf Esteem · host Trudy Morgan-Cole

Air date: March 12, 2017. Elayne Greeley and Lynne Sheppard dropped by to talk about dystopian fiction, book quotes that become part of your family vocabulary, and books you try to get everyone else to read. We learned that Elayne is in love with Anthony Doerr (in a literary sense), Lynne is in love with a book by Salmon Rushdie, and I am not in love with dystopia. Also, all the characters in Fall on Your Knees are really unhappy people.
