Episode 44: Bonnets at Dawn with Lauren Burke and Hannah K Chapman
Perennials Podcast - A podcast by Victoria Russell
Categories:
Today's guests Lauren Burke and Hannah K Chapman are hosts of the podcast Bonnets at Dawn, which explores the lives, work and fandom of women writers from the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries. Lauren and Hannah share some of the wisdom they've taken from authors like Jane Austen, Charlotte Brontë, Elizabeth Gaskell and Louisa May Alcott. You'll hear about why Lauren is drawn to the Brontës' depiction of women's rage and how she relates to these books as a woman of color; what Jane Austen taught Hannah about figuring out whether to trust a new friend, and why writing for money doesn't make someone mercenary.
