Books Undone
By Livia J. Elliot
A literary analysis podcast, centred in speculative fiction.
Some books are more than a simple story. They hide timeless themes and allegories full of meaning that are always worth discussing—but doing so requires dedication and keen eye for details. Join Australia-based author Livia J. Elliot as she conducts literary and thematic analyses of speculative and literary fiction to find what lays beyond the plot, decipher their invisible meaning, and reflect on their symbolism. If you are a fan of fantasy or sci-fi books, new or old, traditional or self-published, this is the show for you!
Be mindful. Books Undone contains spoilers for the books discussed, which vary in each episode.
