There Will Be Books

Episode 121 "The Blithedale Romance"


Listen Later

This week we are delving into Nathaniel Hawthorne's 1852 novel, "The Blithedale Romance." We didn't know what to expect going into this novel, and we both were surprised by how relevant the novel still is. We discuss the central themes to the book, including why utopian societies usually fail. A very fun and interesting conversation about a book you might not have heard about.
