3 Stories - Set in Sicily

There is something about the number 3. The Ancient Greeks believed 3 was the perfect number, and in China 3 has always been a lucky number, and they know a thing or two. Most religions also have 3 this and 3 that and, of course, in these more modern times, three’s a crowd may be too many, except when it’s a ménage à trois. It seems good things usually come in threes.Whatever history and culture says WE think 3, a hat-trick of stories, is a great number to explore themes and literary avenues that classic authors were so adept at creating.From their pens to your your ears.

Gothic Revenge Stories Not by Edgar Allan Poe

In this series we listen to short stories that are NOT by perhaps the most well-known author of this type. But the many other rich talents in the volume may have treated the subject matter a little differently, or were perhaps just overlooked in the stampede to applaud the winner, but these authors are of equal merit. Each of their works is laden with talent, has purpose, and is rich and textured in this gloried niche of literature.1 - Gothic Revenge Stories Not by Edgar Allan Poe - An Introduction2 - The Music on the Hill by Saki3 - The Romance of Certain Old Clothes by Henry James4 - The Ash Tree by M R James5 - The Squaw by Bram Stoker6 - The Spectre Bridegroom by William Hunt7 - Captain Rogers by W W Jacobs8 - The Cold Embrace by Mary Elizabeth Braddon9 - The Middle Toe of the Right Foot by Ambrose Bierce10 - The Beast With Five Fingers by W F Harvey11 - The Man in the Bottle by Gustav Meyrink12 - The Iron Shroud by William Mudford13 - The Miniature by J Y Ackerman
