Listen to episode 2 of our discussion here! https://tapestryradio.org/scotchcast/...

Michael and Ethan, with special guests Lydia and Christina (aka Stiners), discuss their (somewhat slimmer than usual) Mondo Book for the year: Persuasion, by Jane Austen.

In this episode:

Our intern wrote us this very thorough, very thoughtful, and overall excellent discussion guide

A sort of Damocles

True gnosis will lead you to a binary choice

Christina’s Walter Elliot thoughts

Captain Wentworth: a hot blank canvas

Lydia would maybe have to bully Wentworth

There aren’t any examples of persuasion in this book other than like 75 examples

Jane Austen: Unionize! (because it’s about marriage but also class solidarity)

We will be producing “Persuasion but it’s the Blair Witch Project” soon

Coming soon: Lydia’s Ramblings (maybe)
