Happy 2020 and Happy Manuary, listeners! To kick off this special month, we’re welcoming Hunter from Shelf by Shelf for a conversation about Roald Dahl’s Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Published in 1964, the book tells the story of Charlie Bucket, an underprivileged young boy who — along with a zany group of kid characters and their parents — gets the chance to tour Willy Wonka’s mysterious candy factory. On Episode 78, Hunter and Alli take a deep dive into Charlie’s controversial publishing history, discuss the book’s film adaptations, and analyze problematic messages around food, weight, body image, race, and so much more. They also consider why the story has remained a favorite for so many for so many years!Follow Hunter on Instagram (@shelfbyshelf), Twitter (@shelfbyshelf), and YouTube (Shelf by Shelf).
