Placelessness in YA

Season 3 Episode 24 Published 5 years, 3 months ago
Description

What is important about "setting" a narrative in a specific location and why does it seem somehow less important to white writers? We dig into how place contributes to YA stories - particularly indigenous and migrant stories, list the best examples we have covered on the pod and identify our own knowledge gap (fantasy books!) .

Plus, in homework:

Brenna

  • Ashley Garcia S2: Genius in Love (Netflix)
  • Bloom by Kevin Panetta 
  • Pumpkinheads by Rainbow Rowell  & Faith Erin Hicks

Joe

  • Ragnorak S1 (Netflix)
