The Violent Bear It Away by Flannery O'Connor
<p>To become a prophet, you have to burn your bush 🙏😔🔥🌳 </p><p><br></p><p>In this month’s episode we discuss Flannery O’Connors southern gothic classic, ‘The Violent Bear It Away’!</p><p><br></p><p>Young Francis Tarwater was kidnapped and raised by his fanatical great uncle in rural isolation with the sole aim of becoming a prophet of the lord. After the death of his great uncle, will young tarwater keep his promise and baptise his cousin or will he listen to that charismatic, persuasive voice in his head that tells him to question everything?</p><p><br></p><p>True to the genre, this book feels uncomfortable, tense, oppressive and laden with symbolism. The literary equivalent of a lightning storm on a hot and humid summer night. In true southern gothic fashion we recorded this episode mid heatwave, so if we sound a little delirious, blame our slow cooked brains. 🫠</p><p><br></p><p>Are you also having a Summerween right now? Let us know @weirdgirlbookclub_pod on IG! xx</p>

Women Without Men
<p>Planting yourself in the ground as a tree is not actually a normal thing that you can do. 🌳🌿</p><p>This month, in light of the US and Israel's war of aggression in Iran, the girlies are diving into Iranian literature, with International Booker Prize Longlisted Women Without Men, Shahrnush Parsipur's 1989 novel. </p><p>This book weaves a surreal and confronting tapestry of the lives of five different women in Tehran.
