About this listen
What’s more romantic than planning an assassination together? You’d have to ask the radical activist Emma Goldman, who did just that with her revolutionary partner and lover, Sasha Berkman. Emma was a real historical figure and one of the best known anarchists and orators of all time … and the Canadian author Robert Hough fictionalizes her life in his latest novel, Anarchists in Love. The book follows Emma’s early years in New York City, where she meets Sasha, becomes a famed activist … and helps plan the assassination of an industry giant. This week, Robert joins Mattea Roach to talk about Emma’s remarkable life, what we have wrong about anarchists and why 2025 is the new Gilded Age.
