023 - Classics - What the??
Gen and Jette attempt to breakdown the Classics genre and figure out what books might qualify. SHOW NOTES: Oh yes – Before he was Sandy Cohen, Peter Gallagher was in an NBC mini-series adaptation of Brave New World We learned about Copyright & Public Domain rules The Chronicles of Narnia always make Jette think of the SNL Digital Short – Lazy Sunday The sad Irish lady Jette couldn’t remember was Flannery O’Connor who is actually from Georgia Yes – we aren’t fans of JRR Tolkien… Don’t @ us Apparently Atlas Shrugged was a movie trilogy that’s less than 8 years old? The Diviners WAS a CBC mini series but is too “modern” to be a classic but is technically considered a Canadian classic Have you been keeping count of how many times Gen has mentioned HP on the podcast? Ray Bradbury died in 2012 Jette is obsessed with Chicago Fire and does not care! #Shayveride Books and Authors Mentioned: Brave New World (1932) Hemingway Steinbeck The Bell Jar (1963) Faulkner Farenheit 451 (1953) Frankendstein (1818) Brontë Sisters Wuthering Heights (1847) War and Peace (1869) Crime and Punishment (1866) Anna Karenina (1878) Lord of the Flies (1954) Flannery O'Connor Willa Cather James Joyce The Hobbit (1937) Lord of the Rings (1954) Peter Pan (1911) C.S Lewis Alice in Wonderland (1865) The Picture of Dorian Gray (1890) Sherlock Holmes (1887-1927) Charles Dickens The Goldfinch (2013) The Great Gatsby (1925) Heart of Darkness (1902) Lolita (1955) Ayn Rand Kafka Alexandre Dumas Carol Shields The Stone Angel Anne of Green Gables Margaret Atwood To Kill a Mockingbird The Shining (1977) Good Omens (1990) Michael Crichton The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay Far, from the Madding Crowd Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (1971) Don’t forget to follow us on Instagram @anotherbookpodcast, Twitter @anotherbookpod, and Facebook or email us at anotherbookontheshelfpodcast@gmail.com.
