Author and Shakespeare scholar Farah Karim-Cooper returns for our final book club episode of the year to discuss the Bard's most famous play - Romeo and Juliet. We ask questions around why this play became William Shakespeare's most well known, and why we teach it in schools. We also share the characters we love and hate, and unpack the way race plays into the text. Be sure to listen to the end of today’s episode to find out what our January book club pick will be. You can find everything we discuss on today's show on The Stacks' website: https://thestackspodcast.com/2023/12/27/ep-299-romeo-and-juliet Episode Transcript Connect with Farah: Twitter Connect with The Stacks: Instagram | Twitter | Shop | Patreon | Goodreads | Subscribe SUPPORT THE STACKS Join The Stacks Pack on Patreon To support The Stacks and find out more from this week’s sponsors, click here.
