Episode description

Drift off to Dreamland with us as we read "The Last Man," a dystopian novel by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley (author of "Frankenstein"). The book will be read in order, so if you would like to begin at the beginning, please start with Season 4, Episode 54.

[Content Warning: this episode contains descriptions of plague/pandemic and a brief mention of child death.]

Volume 2, Chapters 4 and 5:  A return to Windsor and an interlude of contentedness, marred only by reports of terrible events in faraway places. Plague begins to spread, and refugees begin to arrive on England’s shores.
