No Script: The Podcast | S1 Episode 3: “Wit” by Margaret Edson

This week Jackson and Jacob dive into a real treasure of dramatic literature. "Wit" by Magaret Edson is the 1999 winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. Edson's first play (seriously) is the tender, poetic, and philosophically complex tale of Vivian Bearing, an English professor who is being treated for late-stage ovarian cancer. Listen in as J&J discuss metaphysical poetry, the afterlife, and the noble profession of nursing.
