This episode is an audiobook performance of the eighth chapter of Undine, by Friedrich de la Motte Fouqué. (If you are joining us for the first time, I strongly advise starting Season 4 at the beginning, with S4-E1.) In Chapter Eight, Huldbrand, Undine, and Bertalda take a boating trip to explore the Danube. Things start off brilliantly, then steadily and rapidly dissolve into serious trouble. Undine’s courage and Huldbrand’s faithfulness are put to the test in ways equally dreadful and meaningful.
