So I’ve been thinking about making an iTunes playlist of songs with literary tie-ins. I’ll need your help in making my list because it’s pretty short so far (and, yes, I do have an eighties bias, but don’t limit yourself to that era):
“Wuthering Heights” (from Emily Bronte’s novel) Kate Bush
“Calypso” (from Homer’s Odyssey) Suzanne Vega
“Killing an Arab” (from Camus’ The Stranger) The Cure
“The Highwayman” (from Alvert Noyes’ poem) Loreena McKennitt
“Lady of Shallott” (from the Tennyson poem) Loreena McKennitt
