Title: First Love

Author: Ivan Turgenev

Narrator: Martin Geeson

Format: Unabridged

Length: 03:03:44

Language: English

Release date: 12-01-16

Publisher: LibriVox

Genres: Fiction & Literature, Short Stories

Summary:

The title of the novella is almost an adequate summary in itself. The "boy-meets-girl-then-loses-her" story is universal but not, I think, banal - despite a surprise ending which notoriously turns out to be very little of a surprise. First Love is given its originality and poignancy by Turgenev's mastery of the piercing turning-point (akin to Joyce's "epiphanies") that transforms the character's whole being, making a tragic outcome inevitable. Even the nature symbolism is rescued from triteness by lovely poetic similes - e.g. "but at that point my attention was arrested by the appearance of a speckled woodpecker who busily climbed up the slender stem of a birch-tree and peeped out uneasily from behind it, first to the right, then to the left, like a musician behind the bass-viol."

Title: Dancing Girls

Author: Edna Ferber

Narrator: Phil Chenevert

Format: Unabridged

Length: 02:44:50

Language: English

Release date: 12-01-16

Publisher: LibriVox

Genres: Fiction & Literature, Short Stories

Summary:

The Dancing Girls is just one of the 4 excellent short stories in this recording. All written by the master, Edna Ferber for magazines between 1910 and 1919 they naturally contain her unique mix of real people, sadness, joy and always humor. The lead Story, The Dancing Girls, is my favorite for the way she paints a picture of mid America small town society and how good people somehow (and sometimes) can find their way to each other. Other stories in this collection are Old Lady Mandel; Long Distance; and One Hundred Percent (Summary by Phil Chenevert)
