AUTUMN I: Down we go with Katabasis
Welcome to the very first chapter of our book club podcast! In this autumn opener, we share the story behind starting this community, what we hope to build together, and why books bring people closer. We introduce our first pick: Katabasis by R.F. Kuang. We dive into our first impressions and explore the idea of descent in both literature and life. And of course, no book club would be complete without a little cozy, bookish chit chat to wrap things up.Pull up a chair, pour yourself something warm, and join us on this journey into stories, community, and conversation.

Introduction
Welcome to the Seasonal Prose by the Collective, a book club and literary podcasts for those looking to discover women’s fiction through good conversation.
Seasonal Prose by the Collective is a book club and literary podcasts for those looking to discover women’s fiction through good conversation.
We read mostly literary fiction, fantasy, and horror written by women all around the world. Each season of the year, we’ll be curating three atmospheric books to help you romanticize that time of life. Together, we’ll read and reflect on what these stories mean, sharing our thoughts in monthly episodes. Join us as we discover new authors, expand our knowledge, and get inspired by the sisterhood.
