One girl is living in a world surrounded by death. Despite the chaos and the pain around her, she has one thing keeping her afloat, books. She steals them and has learned to read with the help of a loving, artistic foster father, but this story isn't about sadness. It's about color, life, and the people who paint our world.

ReLIT: Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell

Start growing your channel with TubeBuddy: https://www.tubebuddy.com/litsocietypod
Tired of waiting for Season 4 to start? Head over to YouTube to watch our video podcast featuring Spare by Prince Harry. It's available now: https://youtu.be/OXCf8CaUJ2Q. 
Hate watching YouTube? All audio episodes will begin next Thursday. Until then, we're ecstatic to share the shows still living rent-free in our heads. Here's a favorite from our archives.
Rockwell tried to tell us: A dystopian novel that becomes more evocative as reality mirrors its bleak fiction, 1984 is a vision of a world controlled by a totalitarian regime where not even your thoughts are safe. Is your cell phone watching you, or are you watching it? Are your neighbors spying on you for their political leader's advantage? Does the government own Twitter? Of course, the answer to all of these questions is yes, and this book explains how it all started. Before we dive into 1984, we'll discuss how to keep your privacy as safe as possible today.

But this is his story told in his own words through a series of uninhibited conversations with one of the most influential authors of his time. This is the story of Malcolm Little, who became Malcolm X.

ReLIT: Born a Crime by Trevor Noah

We're on vacation until the start of season four, Thursday, February 2nd! Until then, we're ecstatic to share the shows still living rent-free in our heads. Here's a favorite from our archives.
Who raised you? The assumption is that our families shape who we become, but do our friends have more of an influence than we realize? In his autobiographical tale of being born and raised under apartheid in South Africa, Trevor Noah praises the people who gave him the vision and tools to make his path. He also paints the picture of his mother as a courageous visionary ahead of her time. Before diving into this heartwarming story, we discuss family vs. environment, which significantly influences our lives.

ReLIT: Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë

We're on vacation until the start of season four, Thursday, February 2nd! Until then, we're ecstatic to share the shows still living rent-free in our heads. Here's a favorite from our archives.
It is a tale of undying passion born of loneliness and shame, a type of force that consumes everything in its path and leaves only gloom and death in its wake. Did we mention the two who share this love are foster siblings? They are. Anywhoo … not not judging.
 
The lover's name: Heathcliff.

ReLIT: Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy (Part 1)

We’re on vacation until the start of season four, Thursday, February 2nd! Until then, we’re ecstatic to share the shows still living rent-free in our heads. Here’s a favorite from our archives.
This week, Alexis makes Kari read the world's longest book (just kidding), written by a man some consider to be the greatest author of all time (not kidding). The setting is 19th-century Russia: Moscow, St. Petersburg, and the countryside. Noblemen and women are eating, drinking, marrying, and living. Among these aristocrats stands one woman who personifies beauty and grace. This woman catches the eye of an equally attractive officer. Driven by an undeniable chemistry, the two start down a path of deception and destruction from which neither may recover. 
 
The officer's name is Alexei Vronsky. 
The woman's name is Anna Karenina, and this is part one of our two-part episode. 
Before diving in, we discuss the usefulness of healthy distractions and learn how to escape in ways that don't destroy us.

ReLIT: The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins

Her life is dwarfed into a series of train rides, back and forth, morning and evening, until she sees something no one else sees from the window of her commute. She’s witnessed something that propels her into a series of events, forever changing her life and the lives of everyone she knows.
The woman’s name is Rachel.
The book, The Girl on the Train.
