What's Making You Sappy Episode 2: William O. Gardner

Either to wind down from the crazy week we just had, or to take a well-deserved breather from the work that is ahead of us, "How Do You Like It So Far" team welcomes you to the second episode of our weekly media recommendations! This week, we have William O. Gardner, professor of Japanese language, literature and film at Swarthmore College. From animated features by the seminal Shinkai Makoto to a Russian novel set during the Black Death, Gardner introduces works of escapism and fantasy that seem eerily relevant today. –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Share your thoughts via Twitter with Henry, Colin and the How Do You Like It So Far? account!
