Episode 1: Aijaz Ahmad, In Theory

Big books demand heavy work - and we’re up for it! In this podcast, we take on some of our favourite, often obscure and unpopular books, and unpack the ways in which they have made sense to us. Tune in!

In our first episode, we talk about Aijaz Ahmad's In Theory. While Atreyee had been hearing about Ahmad for a while, she only got around to reading the book once it hit the news after the author's passing away. Bhavin claims this is one of the most difficult books he has ever had to read. Tune in and listen to them talk about Ahmad, the book, and what lessons a set of essays written last century may still have for our present times.
