Podcast Description
Welcome to Method and Madness. This is an ongoing conversation about great books hosted by writers Aaron Gwyn and Brad Kelly. In each series, we figure out what makes a book like Moby-Dick or Blood Meridian worth reading and how writers might learn from them in order to master their craft. We’ll also explore the labyrinth that lies beneath the novel and find out what it means to our most insightful friends.
Podcast Insights
Content Themes
The show explores themes such as literary analysis, the craft of writing, and cultural insights derived from classic texts, with episodes delving into the relevance and techniques of books like Moby-Dick, Blood Meridian, and My Struggle, examining topics like narrative structure and psychological interpretation.
A podcast hosted by writer Brad Kelly (formerly of Art of Darkness). Main book episodes feature 2 parts: a fun, in-depth conversation with one of my most insightful friends, and a sprawling exploration of the book’s many rabbit-holes (usually behind the paywall). Melee episodes are general conversations with authors and others about books, writing, and culture.
Andrew Wittstadt (@andrewwittstadt) joins me to talk about his great podcast on poetry and literature, HEAVY BORED. We also get into the problem of authority in academia and why it’s necessary as well as Andrew’s personal canon and much more.
