Welcome to BookShook! This podcast is all about the first half of September’s book, The Corrections by Jonathan Franzen published in 2001 (up to Page 325 if you're reading alongside). The idea of the podcast is that we’ll split a book into two equal halves — a book that I and perhaps you have never read. In the first podcast, published on the second Friday of the month, we’ll discuss the first half. And then in the second podcast (published on the last Friday of the month - 30th September), we’ll look at the second half of the book (in this case from Page 325). 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 (link below) or send an email to bookshook@yahoo.com. The book we’ll be reading for October's is The Wide Sargasso Sea by Jean Rhys (so get that ready if you’re going to read alongside). Thanks for listening to BookShook! Roger
Content Warning: There may be spoilers up to 50% of the book. I don’t use any swear words in this podcast.
