The Meaning of Watership Down & The Plague Dogs | A Critical Analysis

[Remaster – Originally Published 4/16/2021] Watership Down and The Plague Dogs share a central element in their confrontation with the frailty of life, and the inevitability of death. Here, I’ll be embarking on a critical examination of Richard Adams’ literary masterpieces and their brilliant animated adaptations. Note: Portions of this script originally appeared in my review, “Watership Down by Richard Adams: A 50th Anniversary Retrospective.” If you would like to see more videos from me, please consider supporting my channel on Patreon: and follow me on Twitter for updates: And if you are interested in finding more xenofiction, my debut novel, Winter Without End, is now available for purchase from Fenris Publishing in both ebook and paperback format: 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.
