Stay gold, bookworms. We get into the ongoing need for stories like this one to continue being taught in classrooms. We also talk about the examples of healthy and unhealthy masculinity and how that's changed over the decades. And if that's too heavy for you, we also talk about all the delightful eye candy of all these leading actors showing some skin before they were famous. Plus, Emily shames Jordan a bit for having never read this book before now. (How? How did you survive?)
