On a recent episode of the Inklings Book Club podcast, The Odyssey star Anne Hathaway was given a copy of Josh Silver’s novel, Fruit Fly.

“I know you like Yesteryear,” podcast host Jack Edwards began, referencing the Caro Claire Burke novel about a tradwife influencer who wakes up one day in the 19th century.

“This is a book about a woman who wants to write a bestselling novel,” he continued, explaining that when she looks online and asks how to do that, her searches on the topic suggest, “go sad, go dark, go gay”. 

With a huge grin, Anne opened her arms, saying, “Gimme, gimme, gimme! I can’t wait… I’m going to tear through this.”
