Episode 95: Dragonwyck - What If Rent Was the Gothic Villain?

Anya Seton is a grande dame of historical fiction, a reputation earned by novels like Dragonwyck, her 1944 gothic romance. Join Jack and Kate as they explore the dark corridors and even darker history of a 19th Century Hudson Valley manor home. What are some warning signs that you're in for a rough ride with a romance protagonist? How many times will our hosts mispronounce Ms. Seton's name? Does breast size (once again) hold the key to understanding this book's female characters? All these questions and more will be explored in this episode of the podcast.
