An American Dream Book Discussion

  • Summary

  • Welcome to the first episode of season 2! Alex may have picked a difficult one to start off with, but both brothers are excited to get back into the swing of things. And this first one was a doozy.

    Alex picked the book, An American Dream by Norman Mailer. Mailer was one of the greats in the 60's and 70's but in these times has kind of fallen off the map of being read. Alex and Joe discuss why this is and if it is justified.

    Just a little warning, this book is graphic and both brothers refused to pull any punches when talking about the topics of murder, rape, and incest. You have been warned.

    Next month, Joe's pick will be Alice by Christina Henry. It is going to be another very graphic book. But Joe thinks it is well worth the rough start in reading along with both of them for the start of season 2. There is also going to be a bonus episode this month. Becky was kind enough to sit down with Joe and discuss an interesting book that she had just read. So keep your eyes peeled for that.

    And on the topic of Becky. We would like to thank her for updating our logo for this knew season. So if you get the chance let her know what you think of the color updates.
