Our second episode is about The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson. Caroline and Carly talk about the author’s skill at revealing things unsaid, the corrosive effects of loneliness, found family, awkward introvert moments and queer coding. They start with the question, is Hill House itself lonely? This book has been an inspiration for writers and filmmakers, and our hosts both recognize its charm.
