Reading for Life
Reading for Life is a show about books and the ways they expand our imaginations. Here, I explore texts for meaning, beauty, and the shape they impress upon us as we read. If you're looking for a conversation partner as you continue your reading journey, or need an approachable way in to the world of serious literature and the ideas that surround it, join me!
