This podcast is sustained by sales of our debut book, Meow: A Novel (For Cats).
In this episode, your cat will be introduced to the Lacanian themes undergirding Hanya Yanagihara's work, A Little Life in particular. Topics include the politics of victimhood; metonymy and desire; and performative readings of A Little Life in Silver Lake cafés (cover splayed wide, spine creaking from disuse, dust jacket artfully blemished) as a latter-day instantiation of Artaud's Theatre of Cruelty. We convey the gravity and lasting import of these ideas by meowing thousands of times, incessantly, for over thirty-five minutes.
MEOW is the first and only literary podcast for your cat, conceived and presented in its native language.
