Episode 135 – Defcon Exorcism

Clovers,

It’s time to unpick the plot threads of The Black Bird Oracle — the obvious, the not so obvious, the compelling, and the unfinished. In this episode, we’re talking about narrative questions, narrative and narrator choices, and the impact of TBBO on the rest of what we know about the All Souls Universe.

Download the episode here.

Thanks for joining us for TBBO — it’s been fun.

If there’s another book in the All Souls Universe, would you want us to (a) read it ahead of time (like we did with ADoW/SoN/BoL/TC); (b) read as we record (TBBO); or (c) one of us reads and the other doesn’t? Let us know at chamomileandclovecast@gmail.com.

Take care of each other,

Cait & Jen

Episode 134 – Everything Is Time

Jen

Well, well, well,

Look at us! We made it to the end of The Black Bird Oracle! We’re doing wrap episodes!

Welcome to the first of two book-wrap discussion episodes for The Black Bird Oracle by Deborah Harkness. In this episode, we will be discussing characters, antagonists and protagonists, character arcs, themes, devices, and symbols.

Also, what’s going on with birds?

Yes we do have a mellow (by our standards) discussion of time. I promise that you won’t need prophylactic headache management.

You can download the episode here.

We look forward to talking to you all next time!

xoxo

Jen
