Crossing to Safety: Part 2
Notes de l’épisode
Welcome back. This week we’re on to part two of Wallace Stegner's Crossing to Safety, focusing on Charity's fear of suffering and how that drives her instant to control, Sally's courage and compassion even in the face of suffering, and the characters’ competing interpretations of Piero della Francesca's Resurrection. Plus: A poem by Wendell Berry and Stegner’s humanist project and the characters who embody it. Happy listening!
