World Without End: Striving For Paradise
from Tales of Our Time
Today we're doing a belated and early Father's Day episode, with my dad: Rob Stephens! Since Father's Day in the U.S. was June 21 and Taiwan's in August 8, we decided to put this episode right in the middle, and talk about one of his most recent reads! He talks to us about Ken Follet's historical fiction, "World Without End", one of his King's Bridge Series. Dad and I talk about how the story handles inequality, and how individuals fight against the larger systems that try to control us. A content warning: World Without End deals heavily with forced or coerced sex, and should probably not be read to by minors, or those sensitive to the topic.
