Christmas Special: The Turn of the Screw

Send us a textI'm delighted to welcome back an old friend of the podcast, Catriona Davis to talk about a real classic ghost story - Henry James' The Turn of the Screw  which starts on Christmas Eve and is the ideal short novella if you want a creepy, dark, ghost story for a cold dark night.We talk about unreliable narrators, "spider sense" and how we get into trouble because we don't listen to the little voice telling us it's all going to go horribly wrong. We also think about how to talk to children in an age appropriate way about sex and why learning correct anatomical terms is really important.Follow Catriona on twitter https://twitter.com/catrionadavisCatriona and I talk about some books we are desperately hoping to get for Christmas and a special mention to my favourite bookshop in the world: Scarthin Books in Matlock http://www.scarthinbooks.com/ who also have a brilliant mail order service if you can't make it there in person https://scarthinbooksonline.com/ as well as a presence on bookshop.org https://uk.bookshop.org/shop/scarthinbooks
