Yet generations of readers have loved Emma, as much for her blunders as for her wit and vivacity.

The novel features a wonderful cast of characters, including Emma's hypochondriac father, the odiously prideful Mrs. Elton, the ...

Zwei Mädels sitzen bei einer guten Tasse Kaffe zusammen und besprechen dabei das schönste Hobby der Welt - Bücher natürlich! Was genau geschieht, wie sind die Figuren konzipiert, gibt es Herzschmerz, Drama oder Comedy? Wird es romantisch oder sogar spicy? Um es kurz zu machen: es geht um Bücher und ihre Welten und warum man in sie eintauchen sollte - oder vielleicht auch nicht.

Un podcast per a lectors que volen parlar de llibres sense filtres. Aquí llegir és només l’excusa per debatre temes controvertits, converses que no es poden tenir amb no lectors, i reflexions que van del més superficial al més profund. Tot això amb un toc d’humor i mala bava, mentre “arrestem” simbòlicament aquells que mereixerien presó per segons quines actituds o opinions literàries. Disponible a Apple podcasts, Amazon music i Spotify.
