Literary Guise: A Book Club for Modern Men
A book club where we (those who identify as men and those who want to understand men better) review great works of literature and discuss what they have to say about masculine archetypes. We are two life-long friends, one straight, one gay; a writer, and a doctor of computer science and philosophy, who have vastly different ideas of what it means to be a man. We’re here to take a look at the good, the bad, and the ugly and to grow along the way.

Love him or... more than likely hate him, it cannot be denied that Charles Bukowski has left this mark on the literary landscape with his singular approach to masculinity. We present a dramatic reading of one of his best known prose poems, a surprisingly sensitive and nuanced piece, and discuss it in the context of his greater oeuvre.It's a podcast sure to upset diehard Bukowski fans and we just know he'd love that.
