Thread Name: Song of the Brass Key- Morwen's singing
Subject: RE: Song of the Brass Key- Morwen's singing
Addition to the last paragraph of that 8:22 AM post: I talked about the story I'm doing because I feel it relates to Blandiver's point about irony and racism in TDS. I like it for the catchy songs and great music, not so much for its Unfortunate Implications re colonialism, race, and religion (the banishment scene and "Eastern and Western Love"- even the name of the sequence is unfortunate- anyone? Especially "Let Love Go" and "If One Flower Grows Alone In Your Garden". Arab men are oversexed much?)
