RP Book Club
We’re getting geared up for another Book Club session! Looks like we’ll be getting together in December to discuss The Iron Heel by Jack London.
This time, we won’t be listening to the audiobook during the meetings. We’re excited to spend the sessions discussing what we read instead. We’ve put together audio of each chapter with read-along text to make it easy for everyone to access the book before we meet. Check out the links below.
The Iron Heel
“The Iron Heel” by Jack London is a dystopian novel written during the early 20th century, particularly reflective of the socio-political climate in the United States. The story is told through the eyes of Avis Everhard, who chronicles the rise of a repressive oligarchy in a future America, detailing her husband Ernest Everhard’s revolutionary activities and the struggle for social justice against overwhelming oppression.
