Dispatches From Kint

Episode 17: A Temporary Majesty


Listen Later

We explore the Kintian custom of granting ordinary citizens brief, symbolic reign over the community. A local butcher and a traffic officer are unexpectedly crowned king, and their short-lived rule reveals both the tenderness and absurdity of elevating everyday people to positions of grandeur, reminding Kint that authority, like all things, is only ever borrowed.
