Banning Books. Huckleberry Finn. Faulkner. Wolfe. And the Power of Literature.
On today's show, Dr. Jospeh Bentz joins me to discuss the power of literature and storytelling. It's a topic we're both passionate about, and something Dr. Bentz will be writing a book on! We talk extensively about what makes literature different from other mediums, how the interpretation of literature changes over time, and ways to approach literature. Thanks for listening!
