Welcome to a new series here on Close Reads, in which we’re digging into Emily St. John Mandel’s award-winning, best-selling contemporary novel, Station Eleven, a book which became eerily prescient during peak Covid days. Topics of conversation on this first episode include:
* the experience of reading a book which fictionalized events which almost seemed to actually have happened (sort of) . . .
* why this novel was so popular (including during Covid lockdowns)
* the parallels between the events of the play within the book and the events of the book itself
* and much more
Happy listening!
