What this episode covers
A feminist classic, the hazards of letting doctors make all your life decisions, and a Finnish whiskey that apparently tastes like a campfire got put out with old person candy. Plus, genuinely alien aliens, literary reputation whiplash, and a reminder that the scariest rooms aren’t always the haunted ones. Welcome to Whiskey and the Weird, a podcast exploring the British Library Tales of the Weird series! This season, we're pondering what could have been with our ninth book in the vast collection, Roads of Destiny: And Other Tales of Alternative Histories and Parallel Realms, edited by Alasdair Richmond. In this episode, our featured story is: The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman.
