A book that is a first for the podcast! In this episode we discuss a science fiction novel for the very first time: Babel-17 by Samuel R. Delany, published in 1966.  We chat about galaxies, spaceships, strong lead characters, and the topic at the heart of the novel: language and how it influences our thinking and understanding of the world.  Let us know what you thought about the book and connect with us via Instagram @throughthepagespod.
