Everything Everywhere Daily - The Crimean War

In the mid-19th century, Europe saw what was perhaps its largest war since the end of the Napoleonic Wars. 


The war was ultimately fought over who would pick up the pieces of the failing Ottoman Empire. However, every country that fought in the conflict had its own unique reasons for doing so. 


What no one could know at the time is that the war would usher in changes that would affect the future of warfare forever. 


Learn more about the Crimean War, its causes, and its legacy on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - In ‘Long Island,’ one woman returns to Ireland after discovering her husband’s affair

At the beginning of Long Island, an Irish-American woman named Eilis opens the front door of her New York home and is greeted by news of her husband's affair. The other woman is pregnant – and Eilis must decide what to do next. Author Colm Tóibín says this scene convinced him to write the novel, an unplanned sequel to Brooklyn. Long Island picks up 25 years after Brooklyn left off, following Eilis as she returns to the Irish town where she grew up. In today's episode, Tóibín talks with NPR's Mary Louise Kelly about his decision to write the sequel, his own hometown in Ireland, and his characters' views of what makes someone a foreigner.
