Since the beginning of the #MeToo movement, tens of thousands of people in South Korea have taken to the street, and many more brave individuals took a stand, to end a decades-long abortion ban and bring down powerful men accused of sexual misconduct—including a popular presidential contender. Author Hawon Jung shows the world that these women are no delicate flowers—they are trailblazing flames. Flowers of Fire takes the listener into the trenches of this fight for equality.

John Clare, an English poet born to a humble farm laborer, is celebrated for his vivid depictions of the English countryside and his heartfelt laments over its loss. His work experienced a significant renaissance in the late 20th century, establishing him as one of the most significant poets of the 19th century.
