An Ending, Not a Conclusion (Foundation, Part 5‪)‬ Galaxy!

    • Boeken

The conclusion to Foundation is a mixed bag for us. It is stronger than the previous part of the book, and yet it still feels a little removed from the flow and pacing that characterizes the book's first half. On this episode we talk about Part 5, "The Merchant Princes." We discuss the way in which the Foundation has changed since the days of Salvor Hardin, the application of the mystery genre to this reading selection, and some guesses as to where Asimov's narrative universe is heading from here.----more----
P.S. Apologies in advance for the audio issues that were encountered in this recording. At least it's an uncommon occurrence.
