About this listen

In Long Road of Womans Memory, Jane Addams recounts a captivating tale surrounding Hull House, the renowned settlement house she founded in Chicago in 1889. A peculiar rumor had emerged that a Devil Baby resided within its walls, drawing many women to Hull House in hopes of catching a glimpse of this mythical child. As these women shared their often heart-wrenching stories with Addams, she was inspired to explore the intricate interplay of myth and painful memory in their lives. Revered for her groundbreaking work at Hull House, Addams was a distinguished sociologist, activist, and author, recognized with the Nobel Peace Prize and as a co-founder of the American Civil Liberties Union. - Summary by Ciufi Galeazzi
