Episode Synopsis
In this week’s episode, we start by looking at the Introduction written by Margret Atwood in most modern copies of the book. We take a look at why spoilers might not be as bad as we think they are (though that doesn’t stop me being annoyed about it) and spend some time thinking about the usefulness of giving a reader the context they might need to better enjoy the story.
This is one of the first times I’ve done anything in an audio format and you’ll certainly be able to tell… Many lessons have been learnt whilst recording this, and I’m hoping they’ll be carried to the following episodes. I don’t think it’s enough to put anyone off though, so please do make yourself a cup of tea and take a break for fifteen minutes.
