Sleeping Through the Pages

history, society, culture, education · EN

History is full of stories worth staying awake for. We tell them so you don’t have to.Sleeping Through the Pages is a weekly journey through the people, places, objects, books, myths, and ideas that shaped the world around us. Each episode begins somewhere familiar—a book, a building, a meal, a holiday, a journey—and follows the story wherever history takes us.These are carefully researched stories told slowly and calmly, without sacrificing the parts that make history interesting. Listen closely and you may learn something. Let your mind wander and you may fall asleep.Either way, there will always be another page.
