You’re going to need a box of tissues for this book. We’re warning you now. We talk about the stark realities of the thirties, the advancement of female characters since then, and whether or not George is compassionate. We also share our true feelings about Steinbeck as an author and even introduce a new segment thanks to him.
Episode Drink: White Rabbit Cocktail
Put the gin, amaretto, double cream, lemon curd and vanilla paste into a cocktail shaker with a handful of ice and shake until the outside of the shaker feels very cold. Strain into two small cocktail or coupe glasses and garnish with edible flowers before serving.
