The Collector by John Fowles | When Love Becomes Possession

To follow and support us, click here: http://anovelreviewpodcast.com   What happens when a lonely man wins the lottery, buys a secluded house, and decides the one thing missing from his collection is a woman? John Fowles’ The Collector is part psychological thriller, part Gothic nightmare, and part very uncomfortable thought experiment about love, possession and freedom. And, rather inconveniently, the inspiration for it gets even creepier.   Painting: Today I painted a butterfly   Some of the books and authors and content discussed in this episode include:   The Collector by John Fowles Bela Bartok Herzog Blaubarts Burg Duke Bluebeard's Castle TALES FROM THE PAST: The Garden Secret, Lewisham On Collecting by Christopher Skelton-Foord Design and Meaning in The Ebony Tower by Thomas Loe       Substack: https://substack.com/@alexanderwoolven Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRQzE_T2r6qPR_jbZNgZC1Q Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a-novel-review-podcast/id1681724908 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5uCgZyBj9T5uPQsfbqTUW5 Podbean: https://anovelreviewpodcast.podbean.com   Twitter: https://twitter.com/novelreviewpod Email: anovelreviewpodcast@gmail.com  IG: https://www.instagram.com/anovelreviewpod/  -------- #BookPodcast, #BookTube, #BookLovers, #ReadingCommunity, #LiteraryPodcast, #BooksAndSociety, #ReadingForChange, #LiteratureLovers, #ReadersOfYouTube, #PodcastEpisode, #SeasonalContent, #ThoughtfulReading, #BookDiscussion, #CulturalConversation
