Raymond and Sophie return again to one of William Shakespeare's most mysterious and complex plays, The Merchant of Venice. Is this play a tragedy or a comedy? Why is Shylock's famous demand for a "pound of flesh" so interesting? Why do cycles of vengeance always escalate? Why is mercy necessary and true justice impossible? Once again, and most importantly: What could equal the value of a human soul?

Join the conversation in this exciting new episode and learn why "when in the course of justice none of us shall see salvation."

Stay tuned for our next episode on The Wizard of Oz.
