Ep 9: Journey to the Past

Welcome to Listen Now, Read Later, the podcast that brings you to your next favorite book by reading you short stories. In this episode, listen now to "The Singers" by Ivan Turgenev (published 1852) and hear why we think fans of these stories should read The Book Thief by Markus Zusak (published 2005) later.

Highlighted themes: unexpected emotional attachments, appreciation for the arts, and historical settings.
