Looking to escape the summer heat? Join us and Chel (@destiniesfic) for a discussion on Naomi Novik’s SPINNING SILVER: a 2018 reimagining of the Rumpelstiltskin legend.
Highlights of today’s episode include a discussion on Novik’s reclamation of the folktale via a Jewish perspective. Bonus content includes perpetual stanning of not one but two monster husbands, and Shi is called out for not shipping Chernobog. Popsicle jokes are made.
