Bolu Babalola joins us this week to discuss love, literature, and the enduring power of Jane Austen’s Pride & Prejudice.
Bolu & Ziporah explore why Austen’s masterpiece remains the blueprint for modern romance (hello, enemies-to-lovers!), faithful screen adaptations, and how our personal circumstances and social conditions can shape our expectations for ourselves.
We also discuss Bolu’s highly anticipated new release, Sweet Heat and get exclusive insights into this steamy sequel to Honey & Spice as Bolu shares what’s in store for fan-favourites Kiki and Malakai, as well as her thoughts on writing authentic Black love stories that celebrate joy, passion and community.
Featured Book: Pride & Prejudice by Jane Austen
Guest: Bolu Babalola
