ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Konnichiwa Readers!
We interrupt our scheduled Summer shorts for a not so short review of the big summer blockbuster that everyone is talking about! No - not Spiderman, its Christopher Nolan's hotly anticipated version of The Odyssey - adapted from the translation by Emily Wilson.
Get ready to hear what the pair of nerds thought about this adaptation, and hold onto your hats! They may be on their holibobs but they arent holding anything back!
As promised in the pod, here is the link to Emily Wilson's article in the London Review of Books that Vic and Chris mention - An Uncomplicated Man
We will be back very soon with or our next episode where Vic will be challenging Chris to read The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller and in the meantime we will be keeping you in content over on our instagram and substack.
