Read by Stuart Milligan. Twains classic short stories, with their familiar trademarks of high farce and droll insight, bring us eccentric burglars, cossetted children, and a visitor to a theme park obsessed with the making of moccasins. And also torrents of water.... The McWilliamses and The Burglar Alarm: Surely their home would be better off with a state of the art security device - if it works, that is.... The Experience of the McWilliamses with Membranous Croup: A strange fever is afflicting the neighbourhood, just as little Penelope begins to cough. Though the reason is hardly clear cut.... Niagara: Hooray, it's a day trip to those intrepid Falls, to tramp exciting trails and meet some friendly Red Indians. But the best laid plans....

Members Reviews: Well done I have wanted to find this since the movie came out â I didnât even see the movie because I wanted to find some kind of book firstâso I was very happy to get this! It was short and to the point, I read it all in one sitting. I feel for Benjamin though, a misfit from the day he was born until the day he died. It was a sad story in my opinion, even when he was happy. The art was nice, as was the story written. It was indeed a very interesting idea, but one Iâm glad will never happen to an actual person â old at birth, baby at death. It would be a horrible life, but it made for a great (though sad) original story. Interesting and sad Reading about life happening in reverse was both interesting and sad. Very short read. It was neat that his body's age matched his mental age and never his chronological age. I LOVED IT!! I loved it read it in a couple hours. The movie version is good as well, however, reading the book seems to transport you to that time and era and it is emotionally moving, again a excellent read. One of my favorite Fitzgerald Classics One of my favorite Fitzgerald classics. I think I have read it about 3 or 4 times over the years, and this copy makes either 4 or 5. Worth a read if you like F.Scott, or even if not. It's one of his best in my opinion. Genius Fitzgerald is a genius. I didn't know until recently that this film was inspired by this story. I have never seen the movie and now I can watch it!!

P. Lovecraft Narrador: Víctor Prieto Formato: Unabridged Duración: 53 mins Idioma: Español Fecha de publicación: 11-23-10 Editor: NEAR, S.A. Calificaciones: 5 de 5 de 1 votos Categorías: Classics, American Literature Resumen del editor: Howard Phillips Lovecraft fue un escritor estadounidense, autor de novelas y relatos de terror y ciencia ficción. Se le considera un gran innovador del cuento de terror, al que aportó una mitología propia (los mitos de Cthulhu). Su obra constituye un clásico del terror cósmico materialista, una corriente que se aparta de la temática tradicional del terror sobrenatural (satanismo, fantasmas), incorporando elementos de ciencia ficción (razas alienígenas, viajes en el tiempo, existencia de otras dimensiones). Lovecraft llevó una vida triste y extravagante, con escasos ingresos económicos porque, a pesar de su enorme cultura, no fue capaz de conseguir un trabajo bien remunerado. A ello se sumaba una cierta inadaptación al mundo. Así, por ejemplo, durante gran parte de su vida salía a pasear solo y exclusivamente de noche. Y a muchos de sus mejores amigos no les conocía en persona, sino por cartas, que escribió por miles. Lovecraft murió de un cáncer intestinal el 15 de marzo de 1937, a los 47 años de edad, en la pobreza y el anonimato. El único libro que Lovecraft llegó a ver publicado en vida fue La sombra sobre Innsmouth, en 1936, un año antes de su muerte, del que se imprimieron 150 ejemplares. El demonio de la Peste / Los amados muertosInjustamente ignorado en vida, fue después de su muerte cuando el empuje de algunos amigos y colegas, empeñados en difundir su obra a cualquier precio, consiguió que se le prestara a su narrativa la atención que merecía. Hoy en día, Lovecraft ocupa un lugar preeminente en la literatura norteamericana, siendo uno de los escritores de horror y ciencia ficción más influyentes del siglo XX. Sus escritos, particularmente los Mitos de Cthulhu, han influido en los autores de ficción a lo largo y ancho del mundo, y podemos encontrar elementos lovecraftianos en novelas, películas, música, cómics y dibujos animados. Muchos escritores modernos de terror, como Stephen King, Bentley Little, Joe R. Lansdale, por nombrar a unos pocos, han citado a Lovecraft como una de sus más importantes influencias.

This is a classic tale about the terrible cost of the Civil War, which divided entire families. © and (P)1979 Jimcin Recordings Editorial Reviews: Walter Zimmermans somber yet expressive voice complements A Horseman in the Sky, a short story by Ambrose Bierce that is set during the American Civil War. Protagonist Carter Druse, an only child born to wealthy parents in Western Virginia, joins a Union regiment against his fathers wishes. One afternoon, he falls asleep at his post in a clump of laurel and wakes to see an enemy solider sitting upon a horse. For a moment, Druse is unable to fire, but quickly finds the courage to submit to duty. This tale makes clear the devastating impact of the war upon families.

I need to add that I find it personally painful and not a "fun read". This particular narration is acceptable. But the minimal costs, makes it an good value. I feel that Ambrose Bierce is an author well worth study and this particular short story well worth reading.

Critic Reviews: "Smiley scales another peak...Lidie is a splendid creation." - Kirkus Review Members Reviews: A picky reader likes it. I am very picky about the fiction I read because most novels don't hold my interest. This one has become one of my all-time favorites. However, besides the fact that the story is gripping, the characters are fascinating and believable, and the story realistically blends from one "adventure" to another, I am a bit biased because I first saw this book in a bookstore in Topeka, Kansas, and I live in Kansas, and I have been interested in the period of "Bleeding Kansas". before the civil war The story was too long and some issues were too repetitive. I did not finish it. would not recommend it as a book club reading yet there were some points that brought active discussion. A intimate view of abolition Through the eyes of a young Midwestern woman, a gripping history of abolition in the years just before the Civil War. As a new bride she leaves her childhood home in Quincy, Il for a new life in the Kansas Territory. She and her husband, Thomas, a Massachusetts man, begin married life in the turmoil of impending statehood for Kansas complicated by opposing sides in the slavery debate. Lidie Newton survives personal hardship and political violence with courage and insight. Her views on the attitude toward "honor" of a Southern man versus the "conscience" of a New England man pierced me as true. This is not an easy read, dense and detailed as the story unfolds, I found myself turning back pages to check an earlier name or scene. But I liked Lidie and wanted stay with her to the end. Four Stars Really enjoyed this historical novellete. I like reading about Victorian times. Quiet engrossing page turner, well written. Jane Smiley is a phenomenal writer, the story is first person account of a young woman during the abolitionist years, she is a wonderful heroine. It's interesting for relationships, women's life, and history of this country. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/The-Lost-Word-Audiobook/B002V5BR04 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Reading this book allows the reader to reflect on their own life, their own values and goals. Another element is the writing and the use of words. Van Dyke was able to string words into a story that is on a higher level than most writing today. I hope you enjoy this book as much as I did; and can step back to reflect on your life and what means the most to you. Insightful The way in which this story is written brings home the dangers of casting away what we know at one time to be true and essential. Caught up in the joys and accumulation of perishable things of this world we lose our ability to call forth our faith, which we have let waver, when we desperately need it. However, our living GOD comes to us and rescues us and brings back to our heart of remembrance what/Who we desperately need in our hour of trial. Faithful GOD. About more than Christmas - a reconversion story. Not a classic, but a very good read. For me, a Catholic, it was interesting to read a story where Saint John Chrysostom plays an essential part, written by a Presbyterian. It's a quick read and worth a look. THE LAST WORD What a gift to read a story about God are Father and his Son Jesus Christ. They are real just as the devil is real. This story teaches us to not make light of their name or their power. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Charlie-Audiobook/B002V1O3IG Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

(Library Journal) Members Reviews: Beware Very bad audio quality Narrator is unintelligible What disappointed you about Charlie? The combination of the narrator's English accent and her attempt at Negro dialect (which she has obviously never heard) make the story unintelligible. I gave up 15 minutes into the story because I simply could not understand what the woman was trying to say. I am requesting a refund. What could Kate Chopin have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you? Unfortunately, Chopin is an excellent writer and I was looking forward to hearing the story. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/The-Mission-of-Jane-Audiobook/B002V015S8 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

I downloadedthe free kindle versionof this short story not really knowing what to expect. Turns out, it is a bit of a mystery. The opening pages indicate there should be illustrations - but they are missing. The end of this ebook has a nice summary of the author's life and famous relatives. People who are knowledgeable of sailing terminology will enjoy this story very much. About 75% of it takes place on a ship. The lingo flies and is woven into this tale since it is being narrated by a First Mate. I didn't have any trouble following the story even though I know nothing about sailing. The plot can be summed up by this great line: "Some people don't seem to be so dead, when they are dead..." A great short read especially if you spend a lot of time on the water. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Never-Bet-the-Devil-Your-Head-Audiobook/B01MA6MVBU Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: lemming social challenge attitude survey Entertainment values for the brutality that serve lemming social structures have plenty of double or nothing life values that Poe describes for a character who commonly says: I bet the devil my head. Half of my life (since September 4, 1980) has been spent in a puzzle about intellectual death wish sweepstakes tropes that arise from power trips involving a large number of somebody else to do the fighting. Back in 1980, quick contests with clear victories seemed like the best kind of cultural advance for the intellectual trying to bring the intensity of rock and roll to considerations which might kill Kierkegaard if he ran out of money and a crowd of kids were making fun of his twisted mortal flesh. Writers who had an unusual early death can be compared to a number of drug overdoses that come close to a line in a Bob Dylan song: but he drinks, and drinks can be fixed. I think the line is about one of the characters inFoot Of Pride (Album Version). https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Farvael-till-vapnen-A-Farewell-to-Arms-Audiobook/B01KGIWCYC Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: A short and interesting story from the 1890s My rating: 3.5 stars Audiobook narrator Lee Ann Howlett rating: 3.5 stars I was gifted this book in exchange for an honest review. I was not familiar with this book or author before receiving it. Since then I have learned a little about Kate Chopin and learned how she would publish her stories in Vogue. This short story is interesting for the time period that it comes from (originally 1895). In a time where women had very little power and were very submissive to men (at least from what TV has taught me), this story takes a different approach maybe a more Vogue-like approach and shows women as doing what they can to satisfy their desires. (Thats at least how I interpreted it). I enjoyed the narration. She was clear and easy to understand. My only suggestion is to maybe have different voices for different men just for my clarity. Though, it is hard to judge someones full audible quality with only seven minutes of audio!

In 1965 he received the Howells Medal for Fiction from the National Academy of Arts and Letters, and in 1978 The Stories of John Cheever won the National Book Critics Circle Award and the Pulitzer Prize. Shortly before his death, in 1982, he was awarded the National Medal for Literature from the Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters.

Title: The War Prayer Author: Mark Twain Narrator: Mike Vendetti Format: Unabridged Length: 10 mins Language: English Release date: 05-01-15 Publisher: Spoken Realms Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Classics, American Literature Publisher's Summary: Award-winning narrator Mike Vendetti narrates "The War Prayer", a short story or prose poem by Mark Twain, a scathing indictment of war and particularly of blind patriotic and religious fervor as motivations for war. The structure of the work is simple: An unnamed country goes to war, and patriotic citizens attend a church service for soldiers who have been called up. The people call upon their God to grant them victory and protect their troops. Suddenly an "aged stranger" appears and announces that he is God's messenger. He explains to them that he is there to speak aloud the second part of their prayer for victory, the part they have implicitly wished for but have not spoken aloud themselves: the prayer for the suffering and destruction of their enemies. What follows is a grisly depiction of hardships inflicted on war-torn nations by their conquerors. The story ends with the man being ignored. biacuaduc@gmail.com (Mark Twain) Fri, 01 May 2015 10:54:20 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/The-War-Prayer-Audiobook/B00WXEDEJK thebookvoice.com 00:10:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Would you consider the audio edition of The War Prayer to be better than the print version? Very well read but this work will always stand out. What does Mike Vendetti bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? A ringing tone which reverberates throughout the piece with conviction. Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting? Absolutely. Any additional comments? This is one of the hidden gems among Twain's works. The last line truly marks this as Twain at his most cantankerous. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/The-Fiddle-Audiobook/B00TYOB9LW Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Terrible I was tricked!! There's nothing here the description is wrong. Don't spend your money on this piece of irrelevant carp. It's just things about the author literally like 4 pages I'm not sure how I feel about this story The flow of the story reads almost like poetry, and sounds pretty, but I didn't feel like there was a lot of substance to the story. ... If the book's narrated by Cathy ... ... If the book's narrated by Cathy Dobson, don't bother wasting a credit on it. If you don't believe me, listen to the audio sample. The inflection in her narrative is so off-putting, it's impossible to listen to. There are a handful of books I would have purchased -- if only they were narrated by anyone other than her. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/The-Old-Apple-Dealer-Audiobook/B00M0389KI Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Edgar Allan fue forjando su carácter a través de varios factores importantes que influyeron en su desarrollo intelectual. Por un lado, la herencia de sus padres tuberculosos significó, tal vez, la salud debilitada y la poca resistencia al alcohol que padeció durante su vida Edgar Allan Poe recibió su educación en Inglaterra y en Norteamérica, Su vida universitaria fue rebelde y libertina, En Boston publicó, en 1827, su primer volumen de poesías, "Tamerlán". En esa obra se denota una leve inclinación byroniana. En 1836 se casó con Virginia Clemm, una prima de trece años de edad. Dicho matrimonio colaboró, aunque precariamente, con su siempre deteriorado equilibrio mental. En 1847 muere la esposa de Poe, victima de la tuberculosis. Aún hundido en la desolación, el autor terminó, en 1849, el poema "Eureka". Con la muerte de Virginia, la vida de Poe se vino abajo. Lo encontraron, moribundo, en una calle de Baltimore. Falleció cuatro días después, el 7 de octubre de 1849. Sus últimas palabras fueron "que dios ayude a mi pobre alma". Edgar Allan Poe escribió alrededor de sesenta cuentos, además de una serie de poemas, aunque a este género no le dedicó el tiempo que él hubiera querido, debido a su precaria situación económica. Algunas de sus obras más importantes son: "El gato negro", "Eureka", "La caída de la casa de Usher", "El Cuervo", "El retrato Oval", y "La máscara de la muerte roja". Después de varios cuentos en prosa como los de "Historias extraordinarias" y algunos artículos críticos obtuvo una considerable reputación literaria que llegó a la cumbre en 1845 con el libro "El cuervo". Lo cierto es que, ni el éxito alejó a Poe de su fuerte tendencia a la depresión. El alcoholismo lo arrastraba a sus ataques de melancolía de la misma manera que su melancolía lo arrastraba al alcoholismo.

Members Reviews: Public domain work A woman returning home encounters a crone who allows the young woman to hear the opinions of those she is about to greet, thus learning that all of her worst fears are true. This is included in a horror story collection, though I don't see why. It feels like the kind of thing an angsty teen would write. Everyone hates you, nyeh. It's not horror; it's melodrama. I can't recommend it in any way. Luckily, it is at least in the public domain. I listened to a free audio production from Librivox. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/The-Short-Stories-of-Sherwood-Anderson-Audiobook/B00JBHG4R6 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

First off, here are the short stories included on the 2 discs: A Horseman in the Sky - Ambrose Bierce Regret - Kate Chopin Eclipse - James Fenimore Cooper The Bride Comes To Yellow Sky - Stephen Crane The Cop and the Anthem - O. Henry The Princess and the Puma - O. Henry The Whirligig of Life - O. Henry Read by Garrick Hagon and Liza Ross Based on the name recognition of the authors, I was expecting much more. None of the stories were known to me (and probably not to anyone outside an english lit department). Two of the stories were decent, but the rest were unimpressive. Wasn't impressed with the readers either, as they tended towards over-acting (though perhaps the material lent itself to that). The two-disc set served its purpose of keeping me awake on a long drive to a fishing cabin, but little else. I did like the fact that I could stop between short stories, unlike a longer novel. On my last long trip, I was listening to Shadow Divers (great book!) and arrived at my destination in the middle of a dive emergency. Had to wait three days to learn the fate of the divers. Can't say I would really recommend this compilation, but if you're a voracious reader/listener who goes through books like candy, the price is hard to beat. Also might be more enjoyable to someone else for the nostalgic qualities. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Regret-Audiobook/B00GSREIFW Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

A very short, short (takes about an hour to read it) book by Poe. I found it to be quite funny, laughing funny. There are no pedulums, no ravens or beating hearts.

Members Reviews: Irrelevant Illustrations I bought this -- although I already own several copies and versions -- because it was illustrated. The preview gave no indication one way or the other what to expect from the illustrations, being a mere view of nature, but after purchasing the book I found the illustrations, which are sparse, have nothing whatever to do with the story. They couldn't be more irrelevant. The final illustration is clearly that of an oriental folktale involving some couple who find or adopt -- I'm guessing -- a child who is apparently born or grown out of something looking like a cantaloupe. All of the other illustrations are equally absurd. You would find images more closely resembling the story if you simply Googled the word "images" and looked up at one of them after every few paragraphs. The illustrations, too, are very small and difficult to see. So much for purchasing a book with illustrations.The story, of course, is great! I have no complaints about the author or his work. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/The-Balloon-Hoax-Audiobook/B00D92M01S Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Originally presented as a true story, it detailed European Monck Mason's trip across the Atlantic Ocean in only three days in a hot air balloon. The story turned out to be a hoax and the paper published a retraction two days later (rumoured to also have been written by Poe himself) admitting the deception.The story ignited a fever of excitement in New York: Poe himself claimed that the Sun building was "besieged" by people wanting copies of the newspaper. "I never witnessed more intense excitement to get possession of a newspaper," he wrote. The furore around the story is a testimony to Poe's ability to build up a narrative with such plausible details, that it appears almost inconceivable that it should not be the truth. biacuaduc@gmail.com (Edgar Allan Poe) Mon, 10 Jun 2013 12:28:12 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/The-Balloon-Hoax-Audiobook/B00D92M01S thebookvoice.com 00:32:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: That's Enough of These Balloon Stories. Fresh off from The Unparalleled Adventure of One Hans Pfaall, I began to read The Balloon Hoax with much apprehension and realized my fears. It was that boring! Although I had been harsh in my review of The Unparalleled Adventure of One Hans Pfaall, it actually looks better now compared to The Balloon Hoax. However, it was too long to get through the former whereas the latter was only a third of the length. Let's give credit where it's due. Poe's two science fiction stories inspired Jules Verne to write Around the World in Eighty Days. It wasn't until 1978 that a hot air balloon crossed the Atlantic Ocean. Poe wrote the story, which was published in a newspaper, to fool the readers thinking it was a real story only to be retracted 2 days afterwards, even though they actually believed it. All in all, no more balloon stories, I beg of you, Edgar. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/The-Masque-of-the-Red-Death-Audiobook/B00AVAQL0M Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

A movie that I haven't seen yet was made containing the film version of the tale. In the tale, a fatal pestilence is devastating the country. The Prince, apparently concerned about the lives of his upper class friends gathers a thousand of them to a lavishly adorned Abbey to escape the red death. (Red referring to the blood that flows from dying plague-infected people.) Outside was death, but inside the seven-chambered Abbey there was music, wine, dancing, and laughter. One night, the inhabitants noticed a new figure. Like the others the new comer was masked (masqued) for the celebration. But the newcomer frightened the others and they moved away. The prince, seeing their reaction, ordered his guests to unmask the newcomer, but all were afraid to approachâ. What happens next is typical Poe. A Classic A classic. It makes clear that no one escapes from all the problems of the world. Eventually, even if you lock yourself away, evil, and misfortune will find you.Required reading in High School. Personally, I am a fan of Poe, so I know I will be rereading other works of his. Great classic for my collection, and easily accessible from my Kindle library. Love this classic & it's great to have it readily on my Kindle so I can read it whenever I feel the inspiration. Please let me know if you found this review helpful. Not what expected. Quick publishing? This product is not what I was expecting but it is the story of the Masque of Red Death and the cover is quite beautiful. This book also included a couple of other stories as well which was a pleasant surprise. The font is large and easy to read. It includes some pictures likely found on an online search that somewhat pertain to the story. Overall, for the price and the fact you can find this story for free online it is a decent deal. Special effects When one speaks of special effects now we are usually referring to fx or visual, technological tricks. Poe uses only words to create his effects and they remain in your mind. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Head-and-Shoulders-Audiobook/B00AKK3FBG Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Sally Carrol Happer is a girl from Georgia who plans to marry Yankee Harry Bellamy, to the great consternation of her friends. She travels north to visit Harry and his family and friends for a month, plans to live there â until one eye-opening event makes her realize where she really wants to be. This is by far one of my most favorite Fitzgerald short stories. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/A-Son-of-the-Gods-Audiobook/B007Y3PADI Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Su madre era espiritista; se casó con John London unos meses después del nacimiento del niño, de quien el escritor tomó el apellido. Realizó estudios secundarios mientras trabajaba. London fue una gran autodidacta. Se formó leyendo incansablemente libros en la biblioteca pública de la ciudad. Realizó multitud de oficios que le resultaron muy útiles para sus novelas. En 1897 viajó a Alaska, en plena fiebre del oro. De regreso a su ciudad natal, comenzó a escribir los relatos de sus viajes. Su vida fue azarosa, llena de contradicciones; agitador político, dado al alcoholismo, con fracaso en sus dos matrimonios. London llegó a ser el escritor de más éxito de su país. Dilapidó grandes sumas de dinero. Escribió medio centenar de obras. Murió en 22 de noviembre de 1916 en Glen Ellen (California) a los 40 años, de una urémia. Hay biógrafos que aseguran que se suicidó de una sobredosis de morfina. Narra la agonía del jefe de una tribu india, abandonado en la nieve, con una débil hoguera para protegerle del frío. Su hijo y su nieta cumplen la tradición de dejarle morir cuando se mudan del campamento. El anciano recuerda un episodio que le marcó desde joven, cuando vio a una jauría de lobos atacando a un alce viejo, rezagado del rebaño. Ahora, abandonado por su tribu para morir, el también se ve cercado por lobos hambrientos. En contra de la opinión e gente cercana y de otros misioneros, John Starhurst intenta llevar la palabra de Dios a los habitantes de la mayor de las Islas Fidji, que son caníbales y, a medida que profundiza en su intento, aumenta el peligro que se cierne sobre él.

Title: Hop-Frog Author: Edgar Allan Poe Narrator: Patrick Lawlor Format: Unabridged Length: 25 mins Language: English Release date: 11-04-09 Publisher: Listen & Live Audio, Inc. Genres: Classics, American Literature Publisher's Summary: "Hop-Frog" is a short story by American writer Edgar Allan Poe, first published in 1849. The title character is a dwarf taken from his homeland who becomes the jester of a king particularly fond of practical jokes. Taking revenge on the king and his cabinet for striking his friend and fellow dwarf Trippetta, he dresses them as orangutans for a masquerade. In front of the king's guests, Hop-Frog murders them all by setting their costumes on fire before escaping with Trippetta. It has been suggested that Poe wrote the story as a form of literary revenge against a women named Elizabeth F. Ellet and several others. Edgar Allan Poe (January 19, 1809 - October 7, 1849), born in Boston, Mass., was an American writer, poet, editor and literary critic, considered part of the American Romantic Movement. Best known for his tales of mystery and the macabre, Poe was one of the earliest American practitioners of the short story and is considered the inventor of the detective-fiction genre. He is further credited with contributing to the merging genre of science fiction. He was the first well-known American writer to try to earn a living through writing alone, resulting in a financially difficult life and career. Patrick Lawlor, a classically trained stage actor, has performed on-stage throughout the US and Europe. He has appeared in several feature films, as well as on the television series, "LA Heat." His extensive work as an audiobook narrator has garnered numerous awards, including an Audie award nomination. ©2009 Listen & Live Audio, Inc.; (P)2009 Listen & Live Audio, Inc. biacuaduc@gmail.com (Edgar Allan Poe) Wed, 04 Nov 2009 07:49:52 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Hop-Frog-Audiobook/B0036GRPK8 thebookvoice.com 00:25:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: The Stolen White Elephant (Dramatized) Author: Mark Twain Narrator: Ivor Hugh Format: Original Recording Length: 33 mins Language: English Release date: 11-20-08 Publisher: Jimcin Recordings Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 4 votes Genres: Classics, American Literature Publisher's Summary: In this hilarious spoof of the detective story, a team of detectives try unsuccessfully to capture an stolen white elephant. This dramatized version features a full cast of characters. Editorial Reviews: Mark Twain is undeniably a genius storyteller and he doesn't disappoint in this short story, "The Stolen White Elephant". When a special elephant intended for the queen disappears in New Jersey, nothing else goes well, either. Ivor Hugh has fun with Mark Twain's text. Hugh's performance is varied and exciting. In particular, Hugh incorporates many unique voices, bringing to life Twain's vivid characters, from the silliest to the most stoic. Hugh's energized performance makes listening to this audiobook feel very much like watching a play, acted out by a number of performers. A gifted audio actor, Hugh lends great expertise to Twain's tale. Members Reviews: Another Mark Twain Masterpiece! Why anybody would need to read a review for a free download of a book is beyond me, but here it goes! I thought that I had read all of Mark Twain's books, but it looks as if I might have overlooked this book. This fictional story of a stolen elephant is truly a joy to read. Many parts of this ridiculous and incredibly detailed story of an idiotic bureaucracy are just as true today as they were 150 years ago. This is another masterpiece reflecting Mark Twain's imagination and wry sense of humor. I think there was a sentence or two in which the original text was somehow scanned incorrectly, but it didn't raise my hackles enough to warrant the purchase of an original (OMG paper) version of this book! Reading any Mark Twain book in an E-Book form has many advantages over the paper version. In nearly every chapter, Mark Twain used an obscure word that I could not recall the definition of. In an E-Reader (I use a Nook Fire) you can highlight the unfamiliar word, and immediately get the definition of that word. If you like Mark Twain, you will want to read "The Stolen White Elephant". I was a little disappointed that there was only one line I read it mainly because I heard that my hometown of Monroe, Michigan was mentioned. I was a little disappointed that there was only one line. I had hoped it would be featured more prominently. But it was good. How can you say no to Mark Twain. LOL Five Stars Love the book. Not worth buying free There seems to be problems with transcribing some parts of books such as this. Throughout, the major turning points of the stories, which are quotes from either letters or newspaper articles, are completely missing. I am guessing that the missing sections appear in italics or some variant form. This not the only book in which I have seen this -- makes the entire thing useless. The whole development of the story involves newspaper ads -- all of which are missing. Missing bits, but still appreciable This is not a well done copy of The Stolen White Elephant. As other reviewers have noted, bits are missing throughout the story. Mostly newspaper clippings are missing, but frequently the article bits that do make it in have their formatting a bit butchered. The story is still very good and worth reading in this format, just know that if you really love it here then it is worth rereading in a printing that has the whole thing. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/The-Oval-Portrait-Audiobook/B002V1OBDI Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

A bit too much extra framing in this story, with a man exploring an abandoned castle and finding a journal that tells the story itself. The story itself would have been fine. At the time it was written, this was probably top-notch horror but it's been covered so much by now that I wasn't very impressed. An artist grows obsessed with painting a woman, not noticing her wasting away as he works, until he finishes and she dies. A trope copied many times since, and with better writing (and without the weird framing, as said). This story is in the public domain and can be obtained free from sources like Librivox and Project Gutenberg. I listened to the free audio production from Librivox. Is Beauty better alive, or preserved in paint? A man becomes sick while hiking through the mountains. He finds refuge in a decaying castle. His valet (you know you can never go hiking w/out your valet, right?)sets him up in the smallest bedroom, complete with decaying tapestries, adorned with lovely pictures. The most beautiful picture has a strange story behind it. Gothic Checklist: Ruined building - check. Delightfully creepy place for a sick man to recuperate. Ruined tapestries are just icing on the cake. Obsessed character who thinks he's perfectly normal - check. How did the long-dead painter not notice that his wife was dying as he painted her? Innocent person who has no idea that horror is about to unfold - check. But lo and behold! The beautiful wife has been immortalized! She just had to die first. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/The-Griffon-and-the-Minor-Canon-Audiobook/B002V1NWEW Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

What was one of the most memorable moments of A Sampler of American Humor? Mark Twain's story about the visitors to the old man's cabin--great story What about Flo Gibsons performance did you like? Her characters were easy to distinguish and follow. If you could take any character from A Sampler of American Humor out to dinner, who would it be and why? I don't know about a Character---but I would love to have had dinner with Mark Twain---he was intellegent and his stories were interesting. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Tennessees-Partner-Audiobook/B002V0PXUO Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: The Cask of Amontillado Author: Edgar Allan Poe Narrator: Mike Vendetti Format: Unabridged Length: 18 mins Language: English Release date: 01-20-17 Publisher: Spoken Realms Genres: Classics, American Literature Publisher's Summary: Award winning narrator Mike Vendetti reads Edgar Allan Poe's classic tale about a man taking fatal revenge on a friend who, he believes, has insulted him. Like several of Poe's stories, and in keeping with the 19th-century fascination with the subject, the narrative revolves around a person being buried alive - in this case, by immurement.

While this is a good text of the original story By Poe, it is important to know that it is NOT "Annotated." While there is a separate book about Poe included with this, making well worth the price, the actual story is not annotated with additional information, references, and historical information usually found within an annotated work. It is well worth the price, but it is mislabeled as an annotated text. Almost seems you are there.... The very first sentence sucks you into the story. It is a short story of revenge. I honestly didn't find anything to dislike. A story of fiction but it does describe, in my opinion, the darkness of humanity. Most human beings would not dare act this story out. But I'm sure lots of us have imagine scenarios at one point in our lives where we would like to play it out in reality. This is an abridged recording, not unabridged as the description states. Very disappointed with this audio version. The sample recording sounded great, which is why I purchased it. The description says "unabridged" and it is not. There are parts missing making it hard for a student to follow along with the text. Hoping I can get a refund. Great job This is one of my favorite stories. The translation was great. I love the way the translations have hyperlinks. I think all dual language kindle books should be set up this way.

O Henry simultaneously delights and punishes his readers while leading them through a myriad of details and emotions using the most complexificated verbiage possible. His stories are complex and timeless; settings richly detailed and is a master wordsmith. This book is definitely going in my read and re-read stack. Five Stars Good sampling of O. Henry's works. Good for occasional reading or from start until finish. A bit different than standard O. Henry I expected this to be like the short story, but it's a bit different. It goes through a mans choices and shows that no matter what he would choose, his destiny would be the same. a keeper I had only ever read one or two of his stories in high school - I enjoyed the range and the twists. The One Review, To rule the ALL! If you've ever regretted making a choice thinking that you're life would have been different, then this is the story for you! O Henry's unique style of writing will introduce you to story filled of mystery, suspense and of course a decision. A decision which will lead a certain main character to three roads of which he must choose from. Three Roads. Three ways. Three outcomes. Now what's alluring about this story is that all three outcomes are shared. And curiously enough they end up having crazy, yet shocking endings. This book will definitely make you think twice about all the decisions you've made in the past. We may think the decisions me make will make a huge difference in our future, yet this story adds a certain twist to the phrase "life changing decisions". What if those "life changing decisions" we make are worth nothing, because ultimately we all have the same outcome? Would that change the way you make your decisions from now on? These are some questions that left me speechless with doubt. I loved the way this book made me think. It was wonderful! O Henry's morbid style of writing and wry outcomes will insure you and definite good read! https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Haunted-Audiobook/B01J4FOOVC Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

What happens when the now sickly Randall is finally able to see Dorothea again says much about the differences between love, lust and passion, and the vagaries of youth. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Twelve-Short-Stories-by-O-Henry-Audiobook/B011VQ93KE Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: Europe: or Up and Down with Schreiber and Baggish Author: Richard Stern Narrator: P. J. Ochlan Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 21 mins Language: English Release date: 01-06-15 Publisher: Audible Studios Genres: Classics, American Literature Publisher's Summary: Cultures and egos clash in this hilarious tale of two American men trying to start over again in Europe. For Max Schreiber, World War II was an idyll. It is the return home to Connecticut that feels like entering a combat zone. Ridiculed by his wife and daughter, bored by his legal practice, Schreiber spends his evenings drinking and eating alone, hoping that when he goes to sleep he will dream of France and Micheline, the beautiful young woman who may have broken his heart but at least made him feel alive. When at last he works up the courage to end his stultifying marriage and set out on his own, Schreiber knows exactly where he wants to go: across the Atlantic. Theodore Baggish has spent years planning and saving for his escape from New England. When the time is finally right, he gleefully gets himself fired from his job as a dry goods clerk and sets sail for postwar Europe, the land of opportunity. Nothing will stand in the way of his success, and he will use anyone who can help him achieve his goals, whether they like it or not. Naive, amoral, and unrelentingly eager, Baggish may have been too young to storm the beaches of Normandy, but he is bound and determined to conquer the Continent all by himself. When Schreiber and Baggish meet at an awkward dinner party in the university town of Heidelberg, one them is on the way up, the other on the way down. Are their futures set in stone, or is there still time to change course? Stylish, witty, and profound, Europe is an insightful examination of the intersection of character and circumstance and a laugh-out-loud portrayal of the conflict between the Old World and the New. biacuaduc@gmail.com (Richard Stern) Tue, 06 Jan 2015 15:24:16 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Europe-or-Up-and-Down-with-Schreiber-and-Baggish-Audiobook/B00RR98OVY thebookvoice.com 07:21:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: The Whirligig of Life Author: O. Henry Narrator: Garrick Hagon, Liza Ross Format: Unabridged Length: 17 mins Language: English Release date: 11-20-13 Publisher: Naxos AudioBooks Genres: Classics, American Literature Publisher's Summary: This is a story from the More Classic American Short Stories collection. Here are eight stories from master American writers of the 19th century. They vary from sinister tales by Ambrose Bierce - why is that window boarded up? - and a reflective moment in the life of a woman without children, but forced to look after children, to classic short stories by O. Henry and Stephen Crane. There is even an elegiac description of an eclipse by James Fenimore Cooper, author of The Last of the Mohicans. Read with sensitivity and skill by Garrick Hagon and Liza Ross. Editorial Reviews: "The Whirligig of Life", included in and excerpted from the collection More Classic American Short Stories, bears all the hallmarks of a classic O. Henry story, displaying his characteristic preoccupation with simple stories made memorable and meaningful by a sharp ironic twist resulting in a transformative conclusion. Garrick Hagon and Liza Ross team up to present this engaging tale, with Liza Ross demonstrating particular strength in her performance. Ross voice is highly adaptable, and her acuity with accents, dialect, and vocal characterization contribute to the creation of a rich tapestry of sound, here, in which it is easy to find oneself enjoyably lost. biacuaduc@gmail.com (O.

Members Reviews: A cheap read, but little else. First off, here are the short stories included on the 2 discs: A Horseman in the Sky - Ambrose Bierce Regret - Kate Chopin Eclipse - James Fenimore Cooper The Bride Comes To Yellow Sky - Stephen Crane The Cop and the Anthem - O. Henry The Princess and the Puma - O. Henry The Whirligig of Life - O. Henry Read by Garrick Hagon and Liza Ross Based on the name recognition of the authors, I was expecting much more. None of the stories were known to me (and probably not to anyone outside an english lit department). Two of the stories were decent, but the rest were unimpressive. Wasn't impressed with the readers either, as they tended towards over-acting (though perhaps the material lent itself to that). The two-disc set served its purpose of keeping me awake on a long drive to a fishing cabin, but little else. I did like the fact that I could stop between short stories, unlike a longer novel. On my last long trip, I was listening to Shadow Divers (great book!) and arrived at my destination in the middle of a dive emergency. Had to wait three days to learn the fate of the divers. Can't say I would really recommend this compilation, but if you're a voracious reader/listener who goes through books like candy, the price is hard to beat. Also might be more enjoyable to someone else for the nostalgic qualities. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/The-Prophets-Paradise-Audiobook/B00GO592MC Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Classic Tales Read in Ham-ese These classic short stories are the sort of fare that ought to be included as foundational materials in any liberal arts education. If you've never read them, they are more than worth the effort and even if you have read them, this collection is an excellent refresher. However, that said, the narrator is unbearable. I normally appreciate a British accent but this particular reader's exaggerated phonation is like something out of a 19th century melodrama full of moustache twirling villains. For many, such grandiose affect may be just the thing to give voice to spine-tingling authors like Edgar Allen Poe. Personally, I found the pretentious enunciation distracting (and extremely annoying).Too much ham for me. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/MS-Found-in-a-Bottle-Audiobook/B00FBHPVME Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Come back, dearly departed! In a ruined German city, a man lives with his wonderful wife Ligiea. Really, she's wonderful. Three pages of detail on her eyes, her nose, her mouth her skin, her hair, her wisdom, her walk - and another few pages for her to die, all the while fighting, never surrendering her will to Death. Our Hero wanders to an English abbey - also ruined - and sets up an opium addicted life. He marries a woman who is described in one sentence. Several paragraphs explain how their bedroom has tomb-elements, besides being in a ruined abbey. Surprise - the 2nd wife dies. And as Our Hero sits up with the body in an opium daze... Ligiea's ghost takes over the body and stands up. Totally not an opium dream! Maybe. Gothic Checklist: Ruined building - check. Just in case a ruined city isn't enough, Our Hero has to move into an abandoned abbey. Obsessed character who thinks he's perfectly normal - check. Our Hero doesn't know Legiea's family name, we don't know his name at all, but of course being in love with your wife is normal, right? RIGHT? Innocent person who has no idea that horror is about to unfold - check. How the heck Wife #2's family could let her marry an opium addict in a crumbling building is a little nuts, especially with five sarcophagi in the bedroom. Crazy much? A good helpful version of a Poe horror story Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849) published this short story in 1838. This annotated version contains a good introduction to the tale and has good explanations about what transpires. It is one of many of Poe's inexplicable horror stories. It is based on the idea that the hero of the story loves his wife Ligeia so much that even though she dies, and even though he marries another beautiful woman, he is unable to give her up. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/The-Telltale-Heart-Audiobook/B00E1L3EXE Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Not a good story book for children Iâve always loved different renditions of this story, but had never read the original. I bought for my kids for Christmas. This was a difficult book to read out loud for kids. The language and writing are definitely not of this age. I donât reccomend if youâre buying for children, but a nice book for a collection or something. A story of love and want. I love O'Henrys writing. If only I could tell a story so succinctly! The emotion of each character is laid out very simply yet clearly. That's what this story is about, emotion. Heartwarming We all know the story. 2 people in love without a penny doing a selfless act for each other at Christmas time. It's a must along with the Christmas Carol by Dickens. A good reminder what is really important A good quick story. Sometimes we forget about what is really important in this life. This is a good reminder of that. Beautiful short read You can read this in about 15 minutes. It's a beautiful story of sacrificial love. it's a free ebook! It's an excellent read. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Elsie-in-New-York-and-Other-Stories-Audiobook/B00D52T66Y Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: Elsie in New York and Other Stories Author: O. Henry Narrator: Bobbie Frohman, Susan McCarthy, uncredited Format: Unabridged Length: 1 hr and 15 mins Language: English Release date: 06-04-13 Publisher: Alcazar AudioWorks Genres: Classics, American Literature Publisher's Summary: A set of five tales from one of America's masters of short-story telling. The stories include: In "Elsie in New York," Elsie is an innocent young woman who, upon the death of her father, must look for work to make a living. Her father expected her to trust to the good heartedness of his previous employer, but Elsie prefers to make her own way in life. Although she visits an employment agency and applies for several positions, do-gooders interfere. Thinking they are saving her soul, in actuality they point her to her destruction. In "The Purple Dress," two young women clerks have been saving money all year to buy new dresses for the one gala of their year, the annual Thanksgiving dinner given by their employer. Both are hoping to catch the eye of one attractive gentleman bachelor at the party. But interactions with a landlady and a dressmaker intervene, and things turn out much differently than either girl could have imagined. In "Little Speck in Garnered Fruit" Champion welter-weight boxer, Kid McGarry's new bride wants a peach. Peaches are out of season, so there are none in the shops although all have oranges. Oranges won't do. McGarry entices the local police captain to raid a gambling joint run by Denver Dick, a heavyweight. After beating Denver Dick, McGarry takes a last peach from the lavish dining room and presents it to his new wife. Her reaction is classic O. Henry. "The Pendulum" is a story about a man called John Perkins, who's behaviour is like a clock's pendulum, going from one extreme to the other. In the story, the two extremes include his boredom with his life and marriage and then when his wife leaves, his longing for her to come back while realizing his mistakes. But once his wife returns, the question is whether he's learned anything from them. "The Rubaiyat of a Scotch Highball" tells the tale of Bob Babbitt, who comes to a rude awakening about his drinking. He pictured himself as charming, reasonably social man and realized that everyone else saw him as a drunkard. Although he stops drinking, his problems with appearances do not. biacuaduc@gmail.com (O.

In the tale, a man recounts how he survived a shipwreck and a whirlpool. It has been grouped with Poe's tales of ratiocination and also labeled an early form of science fiction. Members Reviews: A Descent into the Maelstrom "A Descent Into The Maelstrom", by Edgar Allan Poe, is the story of a man's struggle with the sea. The narrator of the story is recounting the tale, as the guide told it to him. The guide has led the narrator to the edge of a steep cliff so that he can view for himself the jagged rocks and crashing surf below him. As they watch, the swirling waves begin to form into a whirlpool where everything is sucked into its core. The guide proceeds to tell how, three years earlier, he and his brothers faced a life and death battle to escape the maelstrom. I wanted to read this story because I like reading about the sea and have also always loved reading Poe's works. I believe that younger children would have difficulty understanding it, but teens and adults would enjoy the suspense of this conflict between man and nature. In my opinion, the imagery of the setting was so vivid it made me want to go see this place for myself: "...this "little cliff" arose, a sheer unobstructed precipice of black shining rock, some fifteen or sixteen hundred feet from the world of crags beneath us" and "...To the right and left, as far as the eye could reach, there lay outstretched, like ramparts of the world, lines of horridly black and beetling cliff, whose character of gloom was but the more forcibly illustrated by the surf which reared high up against it its white and ghastly crest, howling and shrieking for ever." By these quotes, the reader can almost feel the mesmerizing effect of the ocean as it pulls its victims to its black depths. Another reason why I liked this particular story is because it developed the old man's character very well for such a short narrative. The guide must be very brave and perhaps a little reckless to take his boat out where no other fisherman would go near. The fact that he does not blame his brother for what he does proves his moral character and love for his siblings. The old man also states that he is broken in body and spirit, but proves that he is not completely broken by the carefree way he sits on the edge of the cliff. Overall, I thought this was one of Poe's best stories. Even though you know that the guide survived, you still are intrigued to find out how he escaped against such unbelievable odds. If you enjoy reading vivid tales of struggles between man and nature, stories that build the suspense until the very end, or just love Edgar Allan Poe's stories in general then I would highly recommend "A Descent Into The Maelstrom". PUBLIC DOMAIN WORK, FREE ON PROJECT GUTENBERG! If you're a fan of tales of the sea, this is going to be one of those stories you have to read, and probably over and over. If you're not a fan? ...meh? A prematurely aged man tells of his encounter with the great whirlpool, how he lost his brother, and the terrible beauty of destruction. This is a very long story for all the little that happens, though. It's quite atmospheric and, again, if you're into the sea, that's great. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Silence-Audiobook/B00C7C6VP2 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

We meet Evelyn as she is dumping a "male" friend who, in today's world, would be considered her lover. He probably was, but in 1920, they just did not say that in polite literature. Meet the bowl. It was a wedding gift to Evelyn from another suitor she dumped when she married Mr. Porter. "Evelyn, I'm going to give you a present that's as hard as you are, and as beautiful and as empty and as easy to see through." As you might guess Evelyn is a beautiful yet rather shallow person. The male friend was about to leave but, unfortunately, Mr. Porter is walking up the drive. Evelyn hides her friend in the closet, but when he decides to leave he bumps into the bowl and it gives off a resounding alarm. Busted. As she ages, and Evelyn does age, by 35 her beauty is pretty much gone, and the bowl seems to play a part in every mishap that befalls Evelyn and her family. Payback? biacuaduc@gmail.com (F.

Members Reviews: Great short story The story: I am familiar with the movie adaptation which I really enjoyed, so I dived into this audiobook with some idea of the main plot and with the purpose to discover the differences. Not surprisingly the main difference is that the movie version focuses and romanticizes Benjamin and Hildegarde's relationship a lot more (Daisy in the movie). C'est l'Hollywood. Even knowing the main plot I found myself entertained and touched by the idea of this story. No matter where you start old or young you seem to end up the same way, it's fascinating and it makes you think. I like books that make you think. The story is short and to the point, there was not a time where I felt it was dragging out and my attention wandered. The audiobook: I found Michael's voice is very strong and pleasant, there was a distinct echo to the recording but after the first 20 minutes I did not noticed it. The pacing of the reading was perfect, not to fast or slow. There is no need for a lot of voice variations since there aren't many characters that need to be voiced, but I thought Michael's did a good job with young Benjamin Button as well. The Narration Gets in the Way of the Story Im a little at a loss here. Im not too keen on writing negative reviews, but I know it has to happen. How can I consider myself an honest blogger otherwise? Still, Im nicer than Id like to think I am. I dont want to be a bitch or upset anyone. I like it when things are smooth sailing. That being said, this is going to be an experiment in writing a negative review without being mean. I requested this audio edition of The Curious Case of Benjamin Button from the Solid Gold Reviewer program at Audiobook Jukebox. Its a story Ive had on my TBR for quite a while and I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to get it under my belt. I hate that I was so disappointed by this audiobook, but since I am the one who requested it, I feel I should give my opinion. I think its only fair to say that my experience with the narration itself took a lot away from the story. I dont feel that I can be fair to the book itself, so most of this will deal instead with the narration. I have already checked out an e-book copy so I can re-read the book with fresh eyes and give it a fair review. Im going to do something a little different and thats answer questions. I, being completely anal retentive, have a review guide that I use in case Im at a loss and I need a little push to get my thoughts flowing. With audiobook narration, I ask myself these simple questions: Does the narrator embody the characters? Are the voices and accents appropriate and consistent? Does the narrator make me feel as if the events in the book are occurring as Im listening? Does the narrator pay good attention to punctuation, emphasis, and flow? When I ask myself those questions its easier to determine if my like or dislike of a narrator are due to the story-telling practices or my own personal taste. Lets start with characters. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Short-Stories-by-O-Henry-Audiobook/B008DK65LC Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: This couldn't come at a better time. "This couldn't come at a better time. The current trend in audiobooks is the revitalization of the classic radio program, and all the publishers are doing it. From Doc Savage, to The Black Mask, to NPR's Car Talk, it seems that America is rediscovering the joys of the spoken word. And Joe Bev is adding some very worthwhile products to the market. And the acting and sound effects are of the highest quality. Give this a try, you won't be disappointed." - Steven Brandt, audiobook-heaven.com "Are you a fan of old-time radio? Do you wish they were still making those wonderful programs so you wouldn't have to keep listening to the same old episodes again and again? Do you poop out at parties? Do you wish I would stop asking so many questions? Well wish no more o traveler of the airwaves. These full cast audio productions. Don't worry if you aren't familiar with these names, their voice characterizations are as good as any you'll hear. And the acting and sound effects are of the highest quality.

Title: The Gift of the Magi Author: O. Henry Narrator: Deaver Brown Format: Unabridged Length: 22 mins Language: English Release date: 04-01-11 Publisher: Simply Media Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 4 votes Genres: Classics, American Literature Publisher's Summary: "The Gift of the Magi" may be the second most widely read O. Henry story in grammar, middle, and high school. "The Ransom of Red Chief" rates number one. Young readers and listeners have a slightly more difficult time relating to two young married people - old after all to them - than to 10-year-old Red Chief; his father, who makes the kidnappers pay him back in order to take Red Chief off their hands; and all the antics and excitement of it all. "The Gift of the Magi" is not read or heard widely after one leaves high school, which is a shame, because it is such a magical story about expectations being crushed by realities, and the turn of events, which O. Henry was so masterful at achieving. The interesting twist is that these two people both sacrifice for each other, but that means neither of their gifts works out as planned. However (and O. Henry is full of howevers), the two are deeply in love and shrug it off and move on in their happiness. A final thought for the listener: Is there anyone similar to O. Henry in style? We cant think of one, and that is another reason to listen to these stories. As with all Simply short stories, you should enjoy the ideas put forth in the introduction and afterword: things to think about, or write about if you are a student. O. Henry's other two best-loved stories are also available: "The Cop and the Anthem" and "A Retrieved Reformation". biacuaduc@gmail.com (O.

Members Reviews: Not a good story book for children Iâve always loved different renditions of this story, but had never read the original. I bought for my kids for Christmas. This was a difficult book to read out loud for kids. The language and writing are definitely not of this age. I donât reccomend if youâre buying for children, but a nice book for a collection or something. A story of love and want. I love O'Henrys writing. If only I could tell a story so succinctly! The emotion of each character is laid out very simply yet clearly. That's what this story is about, emotion. Heartwarming We all know the story. 2 people in love without a penny doing a selfless act for each other at Christmas time. It's a must along with the Christmas Carol by Dickens. A good reminder what is really important A good quick story. Sometimes we forget about what is really important in this life. This is a good reminder of that. Beautiful short read You can read this in about 15 minutes. It's a beautiful story of sacrificial love. it's a free ebook! It's an excellent read. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/An-Experiment-in-Luxury-Audiobook/B004OZDDAG Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

He retells the story succinctly and honestly about how he ran from his first battle as so many did. His grandchild is alarmed, as children are when they learn that adults are not perfect in what they do. Fleming exhibits bravery in the story as he saves his farm animals and lurches into his barn to save what he can, despite knowing the long odds against it. This story could well have been an afterword to The Red Badge of Courage. The last paragraph is well worth the listening: "When the roof fell in [the barn], a great funnel of smoke swarmed toward the sky, as if the old man's [Fleming's] spirit, released from its body - a little bottle - had swelled like the genie of fable. The smoke was tinted rose-hue from the flames, and perhaps the unutterable midnights of the universe will have no power to daunt the color of this soul." biacuaduc@gmail.com (Stephen Crane) Wed, 23 Feb 2011 03:50:14 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/The-Veteran-Audiobook/B004OYWWOK thebookvoice.com 00:12:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Nació el 30 de noviembre de 1835 en Florida, Missouri, Estados Unidos. Sus mejores obras se caracterizan por un franco y a veces irreverente sentido del humor; por un acentuado realismo, y por un profundo odio a la hipocresía y a la opresión. A los 4 años, su familia se trasladó a Hannibal, un puerto fluvial en el Mississippi, que sirvió de inspiración de Las aventuras de Tom Sawyer y Las aventuras de Huckleberry Finn. Trabajó en imprentas de varias ciudades, y como piloto de un barco de vapor por el río Mississippi. Se casó con Olivia Langdon, el gran amor de su vida, con la que tuvo 4 hijos. Una inversión en un nuevo tipo de linotipia, le arruinó completamente en 1893, pero logró salir adelante dando conferencias por todo el mundo. Además de la bancarrota, la desgracia se cebó en su familia. Su hija mayor, murió de meningitis, su esposa se quedó inválida y otro hijo también murió. Siempre luchando contra los apuros económicos, el escritor se sumió en un negro pesimismo. Hizo un agotador viaje con su mujer por Sudáfrica, Calcuta, Australia y Nueva Zelanda dando conferencias. Fue una celebridad mundial durante los últimos años de su vida, y recibió el doctorado Honoris Causa por la Universidad de Oxford. Su mujer murió en Florencia en 1904 y 6 años después murió súbitamente su hija. De este golpe no se recuperó y murió 4 meses después, el 21 de abril de 1910, en Redding, Connecticut, Estados Unidos. Sólo le sobrevivió una de sus hijas. El nacimiento de Twain coincidió con el paso del cometa Halley, y Twain profetizó su muerte coincidiendo con su aparición, se equivocó por un solo día.

I surely try any book by Mark Twain, but never again read by Prieto. Would you be willing to try another one of Víctor Prietos performances? No, thanks. Why there are so few options in Spanish? And why these books come with that music background? Any additional comments? Please offer more neutral accents and intonation in Spanish books. People in Spain doesn't have a pleasant intonation for Spanish speakers all over the world. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/The-Very-Best-of-Edgar-Allan-Poe-Audiobook/B003THQG7W Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Unabridged Audible seems to have made a mistake in listing this as abridged. I've listened along with the free Kindle ebook and can confirm that it is in fact completely unabridged. This is one of Jack London's darkest tales, it's even been anthologized in a number of horror story anthologies. Like many of his stories it involves a man struggling to survive, but this time instead of struggling against the uncaring brutality of Nature, our hero is fighting against the cruel brutality of Man. The protagonist is a prisoner of a barbaric Indian tribe who are savagely torturing their prisoners to death one by one. While the man awaits his turn he has only his wits to use to avoid his horrible fate. The narration is superb. There is some background music that lends atmosphere such as tribal drums which some people may not care for. Listen to the sample and decide for yourself. I personally believe it enhances the immersive experience. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Old-Pipes-and-the-Dryad-Audiobook/B002V8N4IE Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

(1882), about a man sentenced to an unusual punishment for having a romance with a king's beloved daughter. Taken to the public arena, he is faced with two doors, behind one of which is a hungry tiger that will devour him. Behind the other is a beautiful lady-in-waiting, whom he will have to marry, if he finds her. While the crowd waits anxiously for his decision, he sees the princess among the spectators, who points him to the door on the right. The lover starts to open the door and....the story ends abruptly there. Did the princess save her love by pointing to the door leading to the lady-in-waiting, or did she prefer to see her lover die rather than see him marry someone else?

This is a collection of short stories and the title story, "Lady or The Tiger," is the most thought provoking. Originally written in 1882, this classic is a good story for children to develop their critical thinking skills. All of these stories can be enjoyed by adult readers as well. Each story is entertaining and a great read. Stockton's stories contain strange occurrences and events. Coupled with a touch of irony, Stockton weaves tales of complex plots and paradoxes, combined with a dash of satire. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Buckshot-Cheneys-Last-Train-Ride-and-A-Mysterious-Visit-Audiobook/B002V5GLIM Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: What a Hoot! Loved the tale and the twisty ending... My granddaughters enjoyed this one too, but not nearly as much as the Green Man - a little too Twainy for the under 12 years demographic. I found myself having to explain a lot of the dialogue but found it delightful for sharing across generations. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Jumping-Frogs-to-Cannibalism-Audiobook/B002V5GNXU Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: One of American's greatest, just not this one. I am a Mark Twain fan but I do not consider this his best work. Our book club explored this short story but we did not do much in depth. Three Stars I just wasn't a big fan of the story Read it I am a fan of Mark Twain. This is a very nice collection of short stories that gives a small view into the authors mind. A perceptive writer This book contains some short stories such as the one in the title, and also some autobiographical notes, not necessarily 'unimproved' relations, and possibly totally invented. Of interest is his advocacy of prolongued fasting as a cure for a wide range of illnesses. Five Stars Mark Twain at his best. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Sixes-and-Sevens-Volume-II-Audiobook/B002V1LF78 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: This is a great and entertaining book.. This book is an enriching and knowledge piece of work. Louisa May Alcott is one of my all-time favourite authors and this cute and sweet book is different from all her other works, but a great story too! I loved the way Lily eats candies and then bread. It is good to think that she reflects good values of young girls such as becoming a great house keeper. The moral in this book is also clear- We should never be greedy as too much of anything is bad. There is only one minus point that Lily eats the candy people she sees. It is bad to think that she is LITERALLY eating them. That is like murdering them! Why does she eat the sugar babies? It is sure a wonderful piece of fantasy. It is a bit too beyond normal fantasy, but that's what makes it unique. To say that it is least like the normal Cinderella fairytale which ends in a straight and pretty 'HAPPILY EVER AFTER'. It ends in a unique line.... She also grew from a sickly, fretful child into a fine, strong woman, because she ate very little cake and candy, except at Christmas time, when the oldest and the wisest love to make a short visit to Candy-land. Thus, I liked this book a lot and rate it to you for a light and enthralling read on a day when you are tired and need something relaxing to calm you. Really, what could be better for this scenario but a story about kids and their actions when it comes to ENDLESS candy? The other story was very good too, but the main purpose of my review was for the first story. I can only say a little about the second story, that it was too well and good, which all of Louisa May Alcott's stories are, but it wasn't as fun and relatable to children's lives as the other story was. This is a good book, overall, and it would not be a waste if time to take it, like some books are. I just recommend you take it. Hence, the big four yellow stars above my review. LOVED this Book!!!!! This book by Louisa May Alcott is an excellent book! After being blown away to the Candy country, Lily has a great adventure ahead of her, filled with sugar people, ginger snaps, and the bread folk. Be assured, this is a book you don't want to miss out on. "The Candy Country"'s candy element brings new exiting feel into this classic. Also, this book isn't the type that takes 200 pages to get into the story, by the second page (of course font sizing makes a page different) Lily will already be stuck up in the candy tree with twigs of barley sugar, candied cherries, and leaves that taste of peppermint and sassafras. If you love a good sugary classic, you will love this book!!!!! A fun sugary tale A fun little story for candy lovers. It gently delivers the message that too much of a good thing will make you long for some simple and less sugary food. I loved the details about all the different types of candy, as well as Lily's progression through the world of sweets. Great Book Classical Adventure book many people will love. Including children who enjoy classics, and great adventures. Louisa May Alcott greatest author. Thanks to amazon for the free book. This book is free to download in amazon kindle store. I am happy to own it. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/The-Hell-Bound-Train-Audiobook/B002V1O3QS Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

This book was an abomination to listen to; appalling narration, fantastically bad sound effects. But suddenly I realized: "Hey what am i thinking? Anyone dumb enough to shell out $3 for 5 minutes of ANYTHING deserves to be abused." Just the fact you're actually reading this review right now should alert you to the fact that you are dangerously close to walking down the same road of humiliation that i once traveled. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/El-Sistema-del-Dr-Brea-y-del-Profesor-Pluma-The-System-of-Dr-Tarr-and-Professor-Fether-Audiobook/B002V0824S Escuche este audio libro completo gratis en https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/895/]]> Título: El Sistema del Dr. Brea y del Profesor Pluma (The System of Dr. Tarr and Professor Fether) Autor: Edgar Allan Poe Narrador: Graciela Lecube Duración: 46 mins Idioma: Español Fecha de publicación: 12-16-99 Editor: Coral/ Nueva Onda Calificaciones: 4.5 de 5 de 3 votos Categorías: Classics, American Literature Resumen del editor: Where does eccentricity end and madness begin?
