Bestselling author of Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow Gabrielle Zevin joins me to talk about the beloved children's classic/problematic fav, A Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett. We talk about all the ways that it is wonderful, and some of the ways that it is not, and try to tangle through how to think about these elements in 2023.
