IDB Productions, 2017-01-01. MP3 CD. New. The Blithedale Romance is set mostly in the utopian society of Blithedale, probably in the 1800s. The central figure of the narrative, Miles Coverdale, voyages to the furtherance of humanity through the agricultural means and society of the Blithedale Farm. It starts with a dialogue among Coverdale and Old Moodie, a fellow who recurs in the novel.
