Mort 3: Just Us

Saison 15 · Épisode 3

vendredi 8 mai 2026 • Durée 01:07:28

This week, we conclude our discussion of Terry Pratchett's Mort with thoughts on Pratchett's precision as a stylist, tick-tock structure, and how much of the theme is on the page. Is sentimentality a good thing? Is Mort effectively sidelined in the final conflict? How do we embrace subjectivity over objectivity?
