To celebrate Easter, we have unlocked our paid episode on Eugene Vodolazkin's Laurus. To access the full archive of episodes and special Back Matter aftershows, got to patreon.com/GettingLit.

This week, we're joined by Brisbane musician and composer, Stevan, to talk about Eugene Vodolazkin's novel Laurus. A strange, luminous novel that follows a 15th-century Russian healer whose life unfolds as a kind of spiritual journey through time, grief, and redemption. This was a fantastic, wide-ranging discussion on everything from music to holy fools, to our concept of time, as well as icons in Eastern Orthodoxy, and much more.
