One lifetime is too short to visit everywhere and meet everyone. In each episode of our Strong Sense of Place podcast, we explore one destination and talk about what makes that place different from everywhere else. Then we recommend five books that took us to that place on the page.
Every other week, we share The Library of Lost Time, a mini-pod that features two new books and our Distraction of the Week. Please join us! Then Dave shares his enthusiasm for the Grammy nominees for best audiobook recordings. Do you enjoy our show? Do you want to make friends with other lovely listeners? Please support our work on Patreon. Some effects are provided by soundly.

For centuries, nobles and ne'er-do-wells have gathered on country estates for a bit of leisure, a lot of sumptuous food, sparkling conversation, and general good cheer. Our destination: Trevor Hall.
The Hall is a Georgian mansion on a wooded hilltop overlooking green slopes dotted with sheep and horses. For complete details about the weekend and lots of photos, visit strongsenseofplace.

The film is based on a brilliant short story by Chris Radant that is, sadly, out of print. Both the story and the film tell the tale of a family Thanksgiving in all of its gluttonous, annoying, loving glory. We hope you enjoy the story!
