The Great God Pan, Chapter 2 (Featuring David Milloway) - Midsummer, 2026


Listen Later

Hello, my friends! Our month-long celebration of the Summer Solstice continues with chapter 2 of Arthur Machen's "The Great God Pan," as read by my illustrious friend, David Milloway. Here, we see Mister Clark trace his memories and manuscripts, searching for Pan's fingerprints and actively trying to avoid them at the same time.


I'm indebted to my friend Anna, who pointed out that Midsummer and Midsummer's Day are different holidays. Midsummer is the third Friday in June, so June 20th this year. The two holidays are close cousins, and in fact Midsummer Night is also June 20; Midsummer Day is of course 6/21.

A quiet thank you to Vivek Abhishek, whose royalty-free music lends this show so much of its atmosphere and impact. As always, please take a look at his YouTube page. He really does have a fine assortment of compositions there.


Until next week, pleasant dreams.
