    F***bois of Literature Book Podcast

    • FBOL is now on Patreon! Subscribe: http://www.patreon.com/msemilyedwards • The podcast about the most groan-worthy, enraging, and sh*t characters in lit. Join host Emily Edwards and a guest for a weekly “book club” discussion on every book you wanted to destroy in English class, but couldn’t. Classic literature of Europe and the Americas– everything from mythology to Victorian epics to the modernists– is hard to get through, and each week, we take on a frequently assigned book to talk about all of its highs and lows. These are the Fuckbois of Literature.


    Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    S6E7: The Bridges of Madison County- Cayce Osborne Feb 14, 2024
    Show notes

    Hi, everyone!


    Unfortunately, circumstances are way outside my control and this is the last episode of FBOL. I want to thank you all endlessly for being such an amazing community and audience. I had some fantastic books on the schedule, but because all of my equipment is toast and I don't know where I'll be living, when, and for how long, recording new episodes is off the table.


    The person who finds me with the best Attic Wife joke gets my enduring love.


    Please send some support to Cayce Osborne, who is an absolute gem and fantastic writer:

    S6E6: Jane Austen Adaptations, Pride + Protest - Bianca Hernandez-Knight Feb 07, 2024
    Show notes

    Bianca Hernandez-Knight (@BookHoarding) is back for the first time since our Northanger Abbey episode to discuss Jane Austen and the politics of adapting her. We're focusing on Nikki Payne's brilliant "Pride + Protest," but it's a multifaceted conversation about interacting with Austen, her world, and ours.


    Step aside, tradwives. Jane belongs to other people now.

    5: Under the Tuscan Sun - Lynne Streeter Childress Jan 31, 2024
    Show notes

    I am not above telling you that I suffered through our last three books. They were awful, and they made me sad, not in the way that TESS OF THE D'URBERVILLES made me sad, but sad for real life people. But this book doesn't. Not one bit.

    Lynne Childress's podcast, FINE BEATS AND CHEESES, is also a wonderful time, so please do go listen to it. They're incredible.

    2: You Are A Badass! - Malavika Praseed Jan 10, 2024
    Show notes

    Jen Sincero's 2013 hit hinges on the simple idea that if you aren't currently getting something that you want, it's because you're just... not asking.


    If that's not enough to make you choke, well guess until you learn about how easy she thinks it is to ask for everything from cars to jobs to college acceptance!

    16: A Wish For Wings That Work - Jonny Holt Dec 20, 2023
    Show notes

    If you have no idea what this episode is about, well, you're among friends. This cult children's book by cartoonist Berkely Breathed is out of print and known by few. But if you can get your hands on a copy (which you can here: https://archive.org/details/wishforwingsthat00brea/mode/2up, or watch the cartoon, here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLccxrDgi5U) you'll be introduced to one of the early 90s best Christmas specials of all time.

    And he makes a plug at the end; learn more here, haha: fuckboisoflit.threadless.com


    I didn't plug it in the audio this go-round, but: if you'd like to join us on our Portugal trip, get more info here: https://www.trovatrip.com/trip/europe/portugal/portugal-with-emily-edwards-may-2024

    15: It's A Wonderful Life - David from Thank You Five/Friends Of The Countess Dec 13, 2023
    Show notes

    I had no idea until about two weeks ago that the classic 1946 Christmas movie, IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE was based on a self-published short story called "The Greatest Gift." And not until last week did I, you know, read it in order to prep for this episode. You can read it here, if you want: https://www.tor.com/2008/12/25/the-greatest-gift/


    That being said, most of the beats you know from the movie are there: the bridge, the angel, the regret, the rejoicing. It has a lot going on in a few thousand words. David and I get into it, and America, and PTSD, and small towns, and Marlo Thomas.


    You can find David online here: https://linktr.ee/carriagereturn


    And you can join me in Portugal next May by clicking here: https://www.trovatrip.com/trip/europe/portugal/portugal-with-emily-edwards-may-2024

    Because what I say in the episode is true: I don't want to be the George Bailey of my friend group. And unfortunately, I haven't run into any angels lately, so I guess what Annie Lennox says is true: Sisters are doin' it for themselves.
