Ep. 170 The Undying by Anne Boyer -- The Stacks Book Club (Mychal Denzel Smith)

It’s time for another installment of The Stacks Book Club. This month we’re discussing The Undying: A Meditation on Modern Illness by Anne Boyer with Mychal Denzel Smith (Stakes is High). Our conversation explores the commodification of cancer, the ways sexism is entrenched in the language of breast cancer, and how form and content can work together and fight against one another in the same text. There are no spoilers in this episode. Be sure to listen until the end of the podcast to find out The Stacks Book Club pick for July!
