<p>In this episode, Grace and Liz read Toni Morrison’s Sula and discuss why it’s been considered a classic. </p><p>First published in 1973, it follows two friends, Sula and Nel, as they grow up in Medallion, Ohio. Bound by a shared girlhood and a firm longing for adventure, their friendship takes a profound turn when an unexpected tragedy occurs. As the girls grow, they start to adopt increasingly different philosophies about life: Nel is taken down a more conventional path whilst Sula lives a more defiant and non-conformist existence. </p><p>What can Sula tell us about the mystery of identity? How are friendships affected when people take different life paths? Why is this book still so relevant today? These are just some of the questions they ask in the episode. </p><p>Website:<a href="https://isthisbookaclassic.my.canva.site/"> <u>https://isthisbookaclassic.my.canva.site/</u></a></p><p>All links can be found on our Instagram: @isthisbookaclassicpodcast</p><p>Music: Isla Cummings</p><p>Logo: @jinny_lee_photography</p>
