Thanks for joining us for our ***TWENTIETH*** episode! This month we’re discussing The Changeling by Victor LaValle
Apollo Kagwa is an antiquarian book dealer trying to be an involved father to his new baby, unlike his own father who abandoned him, when his wife Emma begins acting strange. Is it post-partum complications, or something much more sinister? Then Emma commits a horrific act—beyond any parent’s comprehension—and vanishes, seemingly into thin air. Thus begins Apollo’s journey to find a wife and child who are nothing like he’d imagined. With mysterious strangers, fantastic books, forgotten islands, graveyards, forests, and monsters in caves, it reveals the homey, messy magic that can save us all, if we’re lucky.
