Episode 127: A CLASH OF KINGS, DAENERYS IV: "House of Leaves (Part 2)"

Hello and welcome back to the NotACast, the one true chapter-by-chapter podcast going through A Song of Ice and Fire one chapter a week!

 

In this episode, Dany wanders through the House of the Undying and soaks in some visions of wonder and terror.

 

This week, we: 

 

- Break down the act of looking and reading through Dany's eyes

- Take note of how George weaves in Red Wedding foreshadowing

- Dissect HOTU as a projected labyrinth of fantasies

- Compare George's work to Nabokov and Kubrick

- Lock eyes in passing with Rhaegar Targaryen, ASOIAF's prime mover

 

Next week: Dany encounters the Undying at last, only to find out they're serving her for dinner
