The Shadow Over Innsmouth - Part 1 (of 3)

Saison 1 · Épisode 119

mardi 3 mai 2022Durée 01:01:45

This week, we start a new Tale from one of our favourite writers, H. P. Lovecraft. 'The Shadow Over Innsmouth' was the only novella published in Lovecraft's lifetime, and although it forms a central part of his Cthulhu Mythos, Lovecraft didn't actually like it when it was finished, and it was only published after his friend August Derleth got involved.  The original run of books was a mere 200 bound copies, and have become a sought-after rarity in collector's circles.

Alice Through the Looking Glass - Part 2 (of 4)

Saison 1 · Épisode 116

mercredi 13 avril 2022Durée 35:41

This week, we continue with Alice's journey through the Looking Glass Land, where everything is backwards, or opposite, or just plain odd.  The theme of opposites seems to have been important for Lewis Carroll - Alice's journey to Wonderland began outside on a warm spring day, whereas her travels in Looking Glass Land began inside on a cold autumn one. The theme of playing cards was pervasive in Wonderland, whereas Looking Glass Land features chess. Now we meet Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee.  What will that hold for Alice?

Alice Through the Looking Glass - Part 1 (of 4)

Saison 1 · Épisode 115

mercredi 6 avril 2022Durée 52:01

 This week, we begin a new Tale in a familiar world - we return with Alice to Wonderland in 'Through The Looking Glass' by Lewis Carroll. Although the first book, 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland' is often most remembered, it was actually after this sequel was published that interest in Wonderland took off. Expect strange occurrences, baffling logic, fantastical characters and maybe even a Jabberwocky...
