Book I of the Faerie Queene by Edmund Spenser
One of the great works of English literature. Today's story is Book I only, because there's alot to it! But we get to meet the Redcrosse Knight, his journey, and his battle with the dragon.
We talk about Spenser’s strange and fascinating world of knights, monsters, castles, and allegory, and why this massive poem is still worth exploring and savoring today.
