Enter into the turnip-filled darkness this episode, as Ren Wednesday and Adam Whybray discuss Robert Westall's Carnegie medal winning 1981 novel, The Scarecrows. Or, more accurately: The Very Angry Young Man and The Scarecrows That Represented His Anger. It's chewy, it's problematic, it's really frickin' weird and the scarecrows don't turn up until the end - have a listen and see what we made of it! Content notes: interpersonal violence, unhappy family dynamics, rage. Transcipt and shownotes are availble here: https://stillscared.podigee.io/55-thescarecrows
