I look forward to each of your podcast episodes. I am however particularly interested in your reviews of science fiction books. Please consider Iain Bank’s culture series and Ted Chiang’s short story collections for further analysis.

These three young men sound as if they have not lived enough life to think deeply enough to discuss Toni Morrison. They obviously don’t know anything about Ms. Morrison and didn’t get Paradise at all. Talk about eye rolls? Anyone who reads and understands literature and especially anyone who knows Toni Morrison’s work is rolling their eyes at this review. I give this podcast zero stars. If you don’t remember reading Song of Solomon or Beloved I have serious doubts that you read them. I would also recommend that before you try and tell others what Ms. Morrison was trying to say, you might actually listen to what SHE had to say. There are MANY videos out there of her speaking about her works.

If you’re looking for insightful discussions on prominent literature, look no further. Canonical is smart, timely, and engaging. The discussions here offer different viewpoints on familiar topics, such as race and social justice, and analyze them through the lens of fiction. It also offers suggestions for great literature, such as The Vanishing Half, and discusses the process of reading itself: the contemporary reading public and the relationship between reading fiction and social action. Highly recommended!
