• This Week on the Lit Hub Podcast: Men, Read a Book Please

    Perhaps Some Historical Fiction?

    A weekly behind-the-scenes dive into everything interesting, dynamic, strange, and wonderful happening in literary culture—featuring Lit Hub staff, columnists, and special guests! Hosted by Drew Broussard.

    This week, some suggestions for men and some suggestions for history! First up, it’s James Folta chatting with Drew about his recent piece “Men Have Bigger Problems Than Not Reading Novels” and the crisis of cultural illiteracy. Then, Molly Odintz stops by to talk up some upcoming historical fiction—and why reading historical fiction can help positively impact the present.
