No one gets to the heart of these great books like Miller. For those of us starved for access to the classics this is a must. Thank you Hillandale!
Author recommends the worst novel
Nov 27
“Phantom of the opera” the English translation of the novel was the worst novel I’ve ever read. It was a grueling decision to finish it instead of just putting it down and picking up a true well written material. However, The musical is superb. I’ve seen it and it is truly a wonderful work of art for music & theater. But the author says the novel is “super-duper fun reading.” Yes, There are differences in tastes, I understand, but I had to make my comment here because it is painful to listen to an author on a well-known podcast from a university and journal in literature recommending this is “superduper fun” great story. It is Especially painful for those of us who write and must self-publish on Amazon Kindle yet our writing is left to oblivion. Typical of university professors, their opinions are “law of the land” even when subjectively distorted; this interview falls in the same category. I could academically argue the point further that the novel “phantom of the opera” is trash, but I will no longer take your time. Pick up good literature that has some craft and read it.
Harris/Walz ads?
Oct 9
Did I miss something? I checked recent stories on the NR website. They clearly expose the flaws of the H/W campaign. But in the first 10 minutes of Great Books I have had to endure TWO campaign ads endorsing H/W' economic plan for America! Even some Democrats have panned the rank economic stupidity of these ideas, but THIS program is promoting them? I've loved this podcast for a long time, but unless .... naw. I'm out.
