Ep. 16: What is love if not transaction?
from Getting there? · host Lisa and Maja
This week, our discussion is rooted in the new TV adaptation of Sally Rooney’s Conversations with Friends. In reviewing the series we dive into feminism, modern concepts of love, and its (ever so present) connection to capitalism. Do Rooney’s Bella Swan-esque characters support or detract from her feminist agenda? Can Rooney’s marxism and authorship coexist? Is it really that wrong to illustrate love as a mere transaction?
