Before the award's darling film hit theaters in 2025, Maggie O'Farrell's novel made waves of its own with its brilliant prose, rich imagination, and earnest attention to the human heart. Her choice to focus on William Shakespeare's son, wife Agnes, and the possible implications his personal life could have had on his legendary work brought a fresh perspective to one of the most talked about figures in English Literature. In episode 369, join Luke Elliott & James Bailey as they kick off season 10 of the podcast, talk about "The Death of the Author" as a critical approach and what could be gained by bringing them back to life, the real story behind Anne Hathaway, and discuss what they are hoping for next week when they watch the film directed by Chloé Zhao!
