What a wonderful discussion! I adored Daniel Deronda, but I think y’all are right that a knowledge of the Jewish Bible/ Old Testament-as well as a bit of Jewish history-is really useful.
Amazing how we listen to music went through convulsive changes, record, cassette, cd, digital. There was a moment when it was thought books would disappear, Amazon destroying independent book shops, kindles. For books the tide turned and 'progress' was reversed. Best wishes.
It’s been a few years since I read this, yet it feels like yesterday after hearing this insightful discussion.
Wonderful discussion! I really enjoyed reading Middlemarch with all of you. Kim, you were a phenomenal host. Thank you for this video!
