| THE COUNTRY COTTAGE and THE SCHOOL MISTREESS by ANTON CHEKHOV | 09 Nov 2025 | 00:31:44 | |
So much for that quiet holiday weekend so longed for by these two newlyweds! It's FAMILY TIME!!!! Anton Chekhov's "A Country Cottage" centers on two young newlyweds, Sasha and Varya, who are enjoying profound, almost dream-like happiness while strolling on the platform of a little country station under the moonlight. The air is still and heavy with the fragrance of lilac and wild cherry, and they look forward to a perfect, quiet supper of chicken "just big enough for two," along with salmon and sardines. Sasha remarks that their "splendid time" seems almost unbelievable. However, their tranquility is instantly shattered when the train, described as a "dark monster," pulls up to destroy their little oasis of peace. For the Credits: | |||

| THE THREE DAY BLOW by ERNEST HEMINGWAY | 26 Mar 2025 | 00:24:09 | |
In 1925 Hemingway's collection of his first short stories appeared as In Our Time, and included the cryptic The Three Day Blow. He begins with a memory of WWI, then gives us a dialogue between Nick Adams (Hemingway's alter -ego in his early stories) and a friend as they spend a few days drinking at his friend's fathers lodge. The theme is baically to portray a 'lost generation' of young men after the war who had no desire to do much with their lives, including getting married and raising children. There is a lot of "He said" and simple dialogue but this style was new and appealed to a younger audience of readers. It would be years before Hemingway reached his peak but this collection started him on his path.

From the creator of "Leave It To Jeeves" comes this short story, narrated by a character very similar to our friend Bernie Wooster- who tries to help his friend out after a marital row. It seems his pal has trouble remembering anything, and this time he had forgotten his wife's birthday- a cardinal sin in male-female relationships. How am I doing on story choices?

In "The Little Girl Who Dared" by Henry Lanier you'll hear the story of the disastrous plight of the Donner Party, when a large group of emigrants traveling to California were trapped in the Sierra Mountains for months as a result of early snows.

| THE SKYLIGHT ROOM by O.HENRY | 29 Dec 2024 | 00:19:53 | |
In turn-of-the-century New York City, a young lady named Miss Leeson is trying to make it on her own checks into a boarding house and accepts the only room she can afford- a closet-sized upper room with one skylight, through which she looks wonderingly at a star that she names Billy Jackson. Work becomes scarce, and she becomes sick and weak of starvation. O'Henry's skill at describing the building, its occupants, and the plot makes this a classic short story. BEST O.HENRY STORIES.
