Two Book Nerds Talking

We're doing book chasers this week and it's all on feminist retellings - and we're looking into 3 books that go into Greek mythology, Norse mythology, and a famous Ballad. These books are debuts and are so good we can only curl up in envy even as we are devouring them. We delve into feminine power, motherhood, consequences and gender among other things and peeled back why our myths punish women so much. Books we dived into are The Witch's Heart by Genevieve Gornichec, Ariadne by Jennifer Saint, and Sistersong by Lucy HollandExcerpt credits:Genevieve Gornichec in conversation with Jenny Lawson: https://youtu.be/unXlakWQQ2kInterview with Jennifer Saint: Author of Debut Novel Ariadne: https://youtu.be/og1d4_Uv3WYFolk Tale Retellings | Sistersong by Lucy Holland: https://youtu.be/SzcfMSJfhE8Music credits: Bossa Antigua by Kevin MacLeodLink: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/3454-bossa-antiguaLicense: https://filmmusic.io/standard-licenseErrigal by Kevin MacLeodLink: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/3715-
