About this listen

In which the Schlegel sisters enliven a ladies’ dinner with a spirited debate on philanthropy, exploring the merits of giving money directly to the poor rather than confining aid to paternalistic schemes, while reflecting on the uneasy intersection of ideals, society, and human nature. Their conversation on the Chelsea Embankment culminates in a chance meeting with Mr. Wilcox, whose practical advice and news of shifting homes prompt contemplations on change, belonging, and the hopeful intentions toward a certain impecunious clerk.
