This episode features an essay from Jill Lepore’s ‘The Deadline.’
Why do we insist on misreading ‘Frankenstein?’ Hardly a day goes by without someone comparing some new technology to Frankenstein’s monster. But there’s a much richer set of lessons to draw from Mary Shelley’s book.
Today on the show, Jill reads her essay “It’s Still Alive.” And then afterwards, Jill and Ben talk about the meaning of the story, the biography of its author, and how what you read shapes who you are.See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.
