A calm, unhurried history of salt, read slowly to help you fall asleep. One steady voice, a quiet music bed, and about an hour of gentle history. No drama, no cliffhangers, nothing you need to remember.

Tonight: How a hill village kept its salt box filled, the boiling of sea water in clay troughs, the brine wells of Sichuan and the salt roads of Rome and Venice, the white pans of Guérande and the wich towns of Cheshire, a summer day in the life of a salt worker raking the beds, and what became of it all once salt was cheap.

How to listen: set a sleep timer, let it play, and drift off wherever you like. Every episode of The Slow Archive stands alone, so start with any subject that sounds restful.
