About this listen

 Immerse yourself in the enchanting world of William Morris, a celebrated writer, illustrator, and medievalist from the Romantic era, whose works resonate with the spirit of ancient Germanic and Norse cultures. House of the Wolfings (1890) is not just a tale of adventure; it’s a profound exploration of socialism, depicting a clan-based society that elects its leaders and engages in communal decision-making. Follow Thiodolf and the Wolfings as they bravely fend off Roman invaders, blending historical insight with mythical elements. Armed with a magical dwarfish coat of mail bestowed upon him by his beloved Wood Sun, one of the immortals known as the Vala, Thiodolf faces a destiny that intertwines protection with a haunting curse. Join us on this epic journey where valor, love, and myth collide. (Summary by Sailormoon)
