In The Marginalia Club, Louise Prior turns cultural criticism into séance. It’s a candlelit space for overlooked footnotes, feminine subplots, and the haunted inheritance running quietly beneath literature, film, and art. Drawing from her background in bookselling, media analysis, and literary research, Louise explores everything from paternal absences in fiction to the political weight of throwaway lines in romcoms.

Every piece reads like a personal excavation: part analysis, part moodboard, part whispered conversation in a second-hand bookshop. The Marginalia Club is for those who underline passages, rewatch old episodes with new grief, and believe that a story’s quietest detail is often its loudest truth.
