    W.W. Jacobs Box Set: The Old Man of the Sea & The Monkey's Paw , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 45min
    William Wymark Jacobs (1863-1943) was an English author of short stories and novels, well known for his comedies involving rural Essex characters. His most famous story, "The Monkey's Paw" (1902) is a tale of intense psychological horror which is evoked through the use of suggestion and implication. Many levels of myth contribute to the story’s blood-curdling terror. "The Old Man of the Sea" is a farcical comedy about a young man, George Wright, who tries to win a lady’s hand by pretending to be the only heir of a rich uncle. The plan goes awry when the young lady’s mother hits it off with the rich uncle in this hilarious plot. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Museum Audiobooks cast.

    Fairy Tales for Adults Volume 10 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 56min
    The theme of romance continues in this volume and begins with iconic 'The Lady with the Dog' by Anton Chekhov.  Set in Yalta, Crimea, appears at first as a holiday romance. Gurov is a married man, but he holidays on his own and has a history of holiday affairs. He meets the lady of the story’s title with her Pomeranian dog. But Chekhov’s love stories are not romantic accounts of unrequited love or of love at first sight. Or even of tortured love that is amplified by the agony of being unfulfilled. No, these are Chekhovian tales that surprise and intrigue our imagination.  The second of this collection continues with King Lear. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Josh Verbae, Max Bollinger.
