The CodeX Cantina

Welcome to the CodeX Cantina where our mission is to get more people talking about books! Let's look at "Clay" by James Joyce today. From the legendary collection "Dubliners", this is a part of the maturity section. A place where Joyce was exploring the different people of Dublin: their beliefs, their happiness, and more. Let's talk about Hallow's Eve as well as barmbrack and the saucer game in this story today.  Dubliners Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ok3LgNktA18&list=PLHg_kbfrA7YC5fRgJ6JpuJ1dw8mJC0SAH James Joyce Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ok3LgNktA18&list=PLHg_kbfrA7YBoy7yREia3iSb68vXh1IJw Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzdqkkUKpfRIbCXmiFvqxIw?sub_confirmation=1 Link to Read for Free: https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/2814 Link to Listen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ql0UqVmQ0VM Did you enjoy the talk?

Welcome to the CodeX Cantina where our mission is to get more people talking about books! Today we look at "Cat in the Rain" by Ernest Hemingway. One of his most popular short stories from "In Our Time." Perhaps there are symbols of motherhood, maturity, and communication in this piece. Perhaps it's just a cat in the rain and a tired husband? What do you guys think?

Welcome to the CodeX Cantina where our mission is to get more people talking about books! This week we talk about the Southern Gothic class, "A Rose for Emily" by William Faulkner. Ask a professor what's the best place to start with Faulkner and you maybe this story. This piece has a lot of the Old South vs New South and Southern Belle Tropes as seen in many of Faulkner's work. The most fascinating part is the ending. I'm sure we all want the ending explained. Let's chat about it a bit today!
