Gutenberg Deep Dive Jon and Mike
-
- Kunst
From the minds behind illuminating conversations such as Things That Suck: A History, and Let's Face It: The World Is Mad, comes a future award-winning podcast offering an interesting, informative, irresistible, irredeemable, irreverent, insolent, and insightful exploration of literary works from a century past. Don't miss our barn-burning, page-turning fun as we find out how or whether these classics hold up after 100 years, and learn about contemporary issues that affected their writing.
It's time for the Gutenberg Deep Dive!

Episode 07 - The Valley of Silent Men
In our seventh episode, Jon and Mike discuss The Valley of Silent Men by James Oliver Curwood ( Free at http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/29407 ). This book mixed mystery and romance with a healthy side of potentially freezing to death in the far north.

Episode 06 - Main Street
In our sixth episode, Jon and Mike discuss Main Street by Sinclair Lewis ( Free at http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/543 ). This is the highest-rated book on this podcast to date, and written by a Nobel Prize winner, so you may want to read it first (and you can listen to this podcast in a year when you finish this tome!)

We continue to adjust our podcast to meet our pandemic stricken audience’s needs, so we’ve included a new segment where Jon makes a fool of himself summarizing the novel. Let us know if he should do it again.
