163 - Piranesi by Susanna Clarke
Manage episode 459934763 series 3092403
It's a new year and we're kicking it off, as always, with a book club episode. Gen's pick for the end of 2024 was Piranesi by Susanna Clarke. It follows the narrator through his journal entries as he records his life amongst the statues and tides that occupy a series of labyrinthine halls that he calls home.
Show Notes
This one prompted a discussion about what counts as fantasy.
Piranesi is only Susanna Clarke's second novel, published sixteen years after her debut, Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell.
Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell was adapted for TV as a miniseries by BBC1. It came out in 2014.
Our next book club book is Jette's pick and we're revisiting Chuck Klosterman with his essay collection, The Nineties.
As is now January tradition, our next episode is a graphic novel episode. We'll be talking about Light Carries On by Ray Nadine.
Other Books & Media Mentioned
Peter Pan by JM Barrie
His Dark Materials by Phillip Pullman
Stephen King
Starling House by Alix E. Harrow
The Wood at Midwinter by Susanna Clarke
The Ladies of Grace Adieu by Susanna Clarke
