A Canticle for Leibowitz: Chapters 16-24

from Close Reads Podcast Hosted by Heidi White and Sean Johnson

We’re deep into Walter J. Miller’s classic dystopian novel, so welcome to our discussion of this middle section, one in which characters believe they’re on the verge of a “renaissance” and are coming out of a dark age. Conversation touches on the thematic uses of light and the function of the monks as a conscience as well as memory. Happy listening! This is a public episode.
