Welcome to BookShook! This podcast is all about the second half of April's book, East of Eden by John Steinbeck (from chapter 25 if you're reading alongside) . The idea of the podcast is that we’ll read the first half of a book together and then I'll share my thoughts (and yours hopefully! - email bookshook@yahoo.com) in part 1 of the podcast published on the second Friday of the month (April 9th). And then in part 2 (published on the last Friday of the month - 30th April), I'll discuss the second half of the book (in this case from ch.25 to the end). We’ll see together how the novel concludes and decide whether it’s a book we’d recommend to a friend - or not. Of course, you don’t have to read the book, you can listen to it, or just follow along without doing either since I’ll be summarising what happens (but be aware! - there will be spoilers). You can leave a comment or start a conversation below or send an email to bookshook @yahoo.com. The book we’ll be reading for May 2021 is Norwegian Wood by Haruki Murakami (so get that ready if you’re going to read alongside me). The first podcast will be on 14th May. Thanks for listening to BookShook! Roger
Content Warning: There are adult themes throughout the novel (arson, sexual and physical violence, animal cruelty). I have removed any swear words from dialogue. Please check the content of the novel before listening to the podcast.
