In which Adam 'Lit' Smyth and James 'Bit' Kidd don the party hats, parp those funny trumpets and let it all hang out. Or very nearly. This is Lit Bits' way of asking: how do novels, plays and poems celebrate good times (come on).
Is humanity way too down with ambivalence to have a good time (come on, let's celebrate)? Are we too sad these days to strut our whatsits? So: Dickens does Christmas. Milton does Shakespeare. Carver does vodka. Gerard Manley Hopkins does the night. Frank O’Hara does love. And Kool and the Gang does … well, exactly what Kool and the Gang should.
Yaa-HOO! Or, if you prefer, Goo-gle. This is your celebration! It might even work with Ask Jeeves (Ask Jeeves that one, kids).
First broadcast on Resonance FM.
