In a fascinating discussion with Dr Eleanor Baker of Oxford University, Julia Golding takes Mythmakers on an exploration of the world of book curses in Eleanor’s Bodleian Library little book called—inevitably enough—Book Curses! From there, we’ll go on to look at the Medieval culture of the book, and the role of magic books and curses in fantasy literature throughout the ages. . . .
