"Reading fiction doesn't help us escape the world, it helps us live in it".
Show Notes
"Reading fiction doesn't help us escape the world, it helps us live in it" is the thesis of a podcast called Harry Potter and the Sacred Text, which meditates on pieces of the text almost as if they were Scripture. Fr Geoffrey and Fr Yuri can certainly get behind the thesis - but to what degree should we participate in narrative this way? You may be surprised by their answers!
