This week on Getting Literate, Katie and Julia cover their second novella, Brick House, from Daniel Nayeri’s collection Straw House, Wood House, Brick House, Blow: Brick House! The gals discuss blending dichotomies, demonizing figures from Arabic folklore, and the differences between neo-noir films and detective novels. Katie wonders why this novella focuses on criminalizing hope, and Julia wants to take a closer look at the way we think about femme fatales. PLUS: Sin City, Megamind, and eggs. As always, there's definitely spoilers, so proceed with caution.
We had some issues with our audio on this one, sorry y'all — we’re trying our best pls be nice to us.
