Welcome to the Reader & the Writer! This is a new literary focus to the old Beauty & Arts podcast. On R&W, Rhea Forney and Shari Dragovich discuss excellent works of literature--both old and new--through close reading; and then examine how these works give witness to the Great Story, the one that finds as its opening, "In the beginning...." If you listened to their discussions of the the Narnia series on the B&A’s podcast, then you are well-acquainted with the style and format of The Reader & the Writer.
In this first episode, Rhea & Shari re-introduce themselves and dive right into discussing their first book, Demon Copperhead, by Barbara Kingslover. They discuss chapters 1-19, Demon's early childhood years, as Shari calls them, "the Mom years."
