Heart Break and Family Drama in The Last Man by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley

from Sleepy Time Tales - Bedtime Stories for Sleep and Relaxation · host David Couto

I started reading this early early apocalyptic novel years ago and it’s taking a long road to reach where it’s going. But the boring stories of some of the worst people you have ever heard from are sure to help you sleep.Raymond and Perdita continue to break each other’s hearts through lack of communication and putting each other on pedestals, and their friends are trying to intercede before everything collapses. But it really is a boring read and reminds me I never liked Frankenstein either. So it’s great for bedtime.Find The Last Man by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelleyhttps://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/18247  Supporting Sleepy Time TalesIf you would like to support my work and help keep the podcast available and for free, there are several ways you can support the show.·        You can support the show as a supporter on Patreon and receive a host of bonuses including Patron only episodes and special edits https://www.patreon.com/sleepytimetales·        If you’re enjoying Sleepy Time Tales and would like to make a financial contribution, but would rather not commit to a monthly payment then you can throw a tip in the jar at https://ko-fi.com/sleepytimetales PatreonSleep Tight PatronsChuckRobertaTraciCarlaAYAmyJacqueSoniaAbbieGinaGwenJenniferMindyChristyneKreestiTammy Please ShareIf you’re enjoying the show, and finding it helps you sleep despite the stresses and strains of your life, the absolute best thing you can do is share it with your friends, families, acquaintances, cellmates etc. Anyone who needs a good night’s sleep might benefit.So please share it with the people in your life, whether in person or on social media. Find The ShowWebsite: https://sleepytimetales.net/ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/sleepytimetalesFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/sleepytimetalespodcast/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/SleepyTimeTales Merch: https://sleepy-time-tales.dashery.com/ Project Gutenberg Terms of Usehttps://www.gutenberg.org/wiki/Gutenberg:Terms_of_Use
