Sleep With Classic Books

The Mayor of Casterbridge by Thomas Hardy (1886)


Listen Later

As night envelops the world in its serene embrace, we traverse the shadowed streets of Casterbridge, where Thomas Hardys profound literary sensibilities breathe life into the tormented soul of Michael Henchard and the tranquil spirit of Elizabeth Jane. In this sleepcast, the gentle rustle of the hay and the distant toll of the town bell transport us into a realm where human flaws and redemptions are as palpable as the cool, nighttime air. We find solace in the quiet strength of Elizabeth, whose calm amidst lifes storms offers a soothing contrast to the ceaseless turmoil of her father. Let us drift into sleep with these timeless characters, discovering moments of peace in their struggles and triumphs. This episode is hosted by Ashley Johnson.
