Episode 09- The Testaments (September)

from Furthermore Hosted by Furthermore

Sequels are everywhere. We can't escape them, and with each passing day we're given a new TV sequel, another movie in a series or extended universe, or even a book that revisits a world published long ago. No book was a bigger sequel this year than Margaret Atwood's, The Testaments. Avid book reader and overworked Grad student Emma Calabrese stops by Furthermore to lend me her Handmaid's Tale expertise. We talk good books Emma's read this year, what qualifies as Science Fiction, and how much the 2017 Hulu show affected this year's Booker Prize Winner. How many more sequels do we need? Did Emma and I delve in or shelve? Many thanks to Emma for joining me on Furthermore and thank you for listening! Remember to find us on Instagram, @furthermorepodcast and go check out Furthermore artist Max Farinato at maxfarinato.com. Let me know on Instagram if you delved in or shelved The Testaments! Is it worth returning to Gilead? Keep Reading!
