086. The Forbidden Garden &The Unsung Heroes of WW2 - An Interview with Simon Parkin

Bailey Van Tassel interviews author and journalist Simon Parkin about his book, The Forbidden Garden - The Botanists of Besieged Leningrad and Their Impossible Choice. Bailey recommends this as one of her favorite books, as it is wildly important in modern times to understand the importance of seeds and their ultimate fragility. Parkin talks about how he came to find this story and the importance of telling it. There are a few spoilers in the interview, but not many. Parkin shares his exploration of this question: should the botanists in charge of the world's first seed bank use the seeds to feed people amidst starvation and a harsh winter, or do they stick to their pledge of saving the seeds for the sake of humanity's future, and scientific progress in finding better ways to grow invaluable crops?
Listen in to hear more about the telling of this story and what we can learn from it.
