Synopsis

The Suppliants Aeschylus - The Danaids form the chorus and serve as the protagonists. They flee a forced marriage to their Egyptian cousins. When the Danaides reach Argos, they entreat King Pelasgus to protect them. He refuses pending the decision of the Argive people, who decide in the favor of the Danaids. Danaus rejoices the outcome, and the Danaids praise the Greek gods. Almost immediately, a herald of the Egyptians comes to attempt to force the Danaids to return to their cousins for marriage. Pelasgus arrives, threatens the herald, and urges the Danaids to remain within the walls of Argos. The play ends with the Danaids retreating into the Argive walls, protected.

    Will this killer scare him to death or kill him? 
    Lance Alexander Sr sat singing along with his car radio as he waited to pick up his son Jr. He was totally distracted by the music. He didn't see the man jump in his car til it was too late. "What are you doing in my car," said Lance noticing him. 
    "Drive!" said the stranger coldly. 
    "I'm waiting for my son hit the road, Jack!" said Lance he hadn't time for this guy. 
    "Forget him and drive," said the stranger pulling a gun on Lance. 
    "You don't want to do this mate!" warned Lance knowingly. 
    "do you think you're a magician?" asked the carjacker. 
    "I'm worse!" said Lance smiling darkly as he stared the car and sped off. Lance was worse than a magician they were heroes he was wanted by the police as a serial killer. 
    His son saw his car speed away. 
    "Okay I'll take myself home then!" said Jr shortly and disappeared into thin air teleporting home. 
    Meanwhile, in the car, the carjacker was terrified thinking he chose the wrong car to carjack. The owner was insane and had some sort of a death wish he was all over the road like a madman and had a devil-may-care attitude with the carjacker. 
    "Let me out of here? I'll not hurt you if you let me go," pleaded the carjacker who was petrified. 
    "You said you wanted me to drive," said Lance in a mock hurt tone as he locked the doors and drove on.

    ‘Book of 19 Nocturnes’ is an inter-genre fantasy. The phantasmagorical tale follows the wandering mind and feet of a woman made of wood, named Book, who befriends other monsters as she navigates a lonely, labyrinthine realm. Set in the forests and mountains of a world where the sun never rises, Book’s story unfolds with a surrealistic, dream-logic. 
    Defying easy categorization, this audio-drama is akin to an illuminated manuscript or a grimoire—a magical book. It blends elements of graphic novels, dream diaries, field journals, prose poetry and illustrated fairy tales. Night-owl / artist / author Jim Holyoak wrote and drew the book over 19+ years, often during his perambulations in the wilds of Scandinavia, British Columbia, and the Himalayas. It is best listened to over the course of 19 nights. 
    For fans of authors like: William Blake, Haruki Murakami, Ursula K. Le Guin, Tove Jansson, Tim Burton, and Terry Pratchett's radio-dramas. Also available for purchase is a 500-page, fully illustrated, e-book version of 'Book of 19 Nocturnes,' (which is best viewed in colour on an iPad or larger).
