About this listen

Step into the world of Gold Sickle; or, Hena the Virgin of the Isle of Sen, the opening chapter of Eugène Sues ambitious work, The Mysteries of the People; or, History of a Proletarian Family Across the Ages. In this gripping narrative, Sue aims to weave a universal history that chronicles the ongoing struggles between the oppressed and their oppressors from the dawn of time to his contemporary society. Meet the Gallic chief Joel and his son, who, eager for tales of adventure, invite a traveler to share their evening meal. When he declines, they resort to capturing him, leading to a captivating exchange of stories that ignites a profound discussion on freedom and its true value. Join us for a journey filled with intrigue, history, and the quest for liberty. (Summary by Petra, partly adapted from the Translators Preface)
