in our time, chapter 18: "The king was working in the garden"

  • Summary

  • Welcome to our eighteenth and final show celebrating the centenary of the Paris edition of Hemingway’s book of vignettes, in our time.

    In this quirky narrative that would come to be known as “L’Envoi” in the following year’s In Our Time collection, our narrator meets a king and a queen in the garden, leading to a discussion of The Beatles, gardens in in our time, Hemingway’s complex use of narrative perspective, the role of America within all of the various settings of these sketches, how his journalism spawns his fiction, and more. We also hand out awards for Favorite Sketch, Favorite Character, and Most Memorable Image in in our time.

    Join us -- one more time -- as we explore in our time before it became In Our Time!
