BSG #116: The Fifth Poem is Really Important / Sunbirth
Tuesday, 17 February, 2026
Is it just us or are things…dark lately? We’re not just talking about the news – we’re discussing Sunbirth by An Yu. We talk about the meaning of the sun slipping away, the writing style and pacing, the narrator, and the general ennui of it all. Then we take a brief side quest to talk about The Traitors US S4 because we can. Grab your windbreaker for our next Othersode about Emerald Fennell’s film “adaptation” of Wuthering Heights – featuring special guest Ben Mitchell – on March 3. Then read along for our next Bookpisode about Swallows by Natsuo Kirino on March 17.
