Hello, and welcome to my channel! Here, I focus on longform critical analysis of writing, primarily with regards to western animation and literary xenofiction (stories told from the perspective of animals), but from time to time I will branch out into other subject matter. I also write under the name Casimir Laski. ______________________________________________________________________________ Author, YouTuber, Literary Critic.

Video Description

To celebrate the release of my debut novel, I thought I'd talk a little about one of my favorite episodes of Avatar: The Library. Speaking of which, said novel, Winter Without End, is now available for purchase in both paperback and e-book formats: https://www.fenrispublishing.com/winter A post-apocalyptic story told through the eyes of a dog, Winter Without End follows a Labrador retriever who, after being abandoned by his human family in the aftermath of a devastating pandemic, makes an uneasy alliance with a wounded wolf in order to survive.
