Welcome to BookShook! This podcast is all about the first half of March’s book, The Moon and the Bonfire by Cesare Pavese (up to the end of ch.15 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 - and perhaps make a few predictions about what may occur in the second half. And then in part 2 (published on the last Friday of the month - 26 March), I'll discuss the second half of the book (in this case from ch.16 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 at the BookShook YouTube channel or send an email to bookshook @yahoo.com. The book we’ll be reading for April 2021 is East of Eden by John Steinbeck (so get that ready if you’re going to read alongside me). Thanks for listening to BookShook! Roger
