About this episode
I dive into two very long books that are also worth the investment. The Bee Sting by Paul Murray tells the story of a contemporary Irish family that has fallen on hard times and is full of secrets. Contemporary family saga Wellness by Nathan Hill is set in the suburbs of Chicago an explores the malaise of middle age marriage. It is also a send up on our preoccupation with the wellness industry. Both books have deep character backstories and are considered tragicomic novels.
Books and resources discussed:
One Day (2024), Netflix
Millionaire Matchmaker, Netflix
The Bee Sting by Paul Murray
Wellness by Nathan Hill
