  • Resumen

  • Welcome to The Gibson Girl Review, a unique podcast that celebrates the surprisingly relevant world of Gilded Age and Progressive Era literature. Combining our passions for history and old books, we explore life and love at the turn of the 20th century through its contemporary fiction—books that today are often valued only for their gorgeous covers. But what entertaining surprises and historical secrets lie within? Join us as we rescue these antique novels from the doom of mere décor and uncover all that they still have to teach us about the world and ourselves in it—both then and now.
