Mashreads Podcast

This week on the MashReads Podcast, we read and discuss George Saunders's new postmodern novel 'Lincoln In The Bardo' And as always, we close the show with recommendations: Aliza recommends the audiobook version of Lincoln In The Bardo. "The audiobook for this book, Lincoln In The Bardo, is amazing. All of the 166 different perspectives have a different voice actor; they're all well known celebrities/ big name actors, and they all apparently knocked it out of the park." Peter recommends rewatching the first John Wick movie (before seeing John Wick: Chapter 2). "What I love so much about that movie is that it all takes place in its own kind of silly world, but it knows it's silly and it's fine being silly." MJ recommends Kathryn Schulz's 'When Things Go Missing,' a new essay in the New Yorker about grief and the phenomenon of losing things. "It's both a really heartbreaking and emotional essay, but also a masterful one. [Kathryn Schulz] is such a phenomenal writer. I highly recommend you go read this."
