Srividya Sivakumar and Swati Nair dig deep into what makes works of literature iconic and unforgettable. Why novels like Rebecca and Wuthering Heights stand the test of time and how mental health is a strong, enduring theme.
Along the way they ask questions about the characterization of women characters in the novels, how mental health is depicted in books, and how atmosphere and language creates an unforgettable experience for the reader.
