Did you know that Thursday is a person? That throwing wads of paper with nonsense written on them is a tactic of escape? That it can be surprisingly difficult to tell the difference between an anarchist and a detective? If none of that made sense to you, then don't expect it to be clarified. In an episode where your hosts were sure they had little of insight to say, we still managed to discuss this perplexing book for about an hour. Holly may or may not have enjoyed this book, and Rebecca develops a warm regard for over-the-top characters. Join us as we draw this novel's allegory back to the book of Job and decide the meaning behind suffering is better felt than explained. 

This episode is available Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and ESPECIALLY Sundays on Spotify, YouTube, and Apple Podcasts. Admission to the council of improving this podcast with comments, book suggestions, and general opinions requires no experience or skill, and participation is encouraged by emailing us at tworetiredhomeschoolers@gmail.com. You don't have to be a detective to find our Instagram @tworetiredhomeschoolers. Our next meeting occurs in three weeks to talk about Till We Have Faces by C.S. Lewis.
