  Ethan Frome is Edith Wharton’s masterful tale of isolation, duty, and forbidden longing set against the stark backdrop of rural New England. In the frozen town of Starkfield, Massachusetts, the quiet and physically broken Ethan Frome toils through a bleak existence alongside his cold, hypochondriac wife, Zeena. When her cousin Mattie Silver arrives to help care for Zeena, Ethan finds himself drawn to her warmth and vitality. As their connection deepens, an impossible choice brews beneath the surface—between passion and obligation, between escape and sacrifice. 
  Told through the eyes of an unnamed outsider who uncovers the tragic story piece by piece, Ethan Frome explores the crushing power of social expectations and the irreversible consequences of a single decision. With its haunting atmosphere and poignant psychological insight, this novella remains one of Wharton’s most enduring and heartbreaking works.

  The Pendle Witches England 1600's 
  Book 1 of 7 The Tale of Elizabeth Southerns/Old Demdike 
  This is the first book in the series and is fictionally based on the true names and part facts of seven of the accused witches involved being sentenced to death mostly, although innocent, and is as follows: 
  Elizabeth Southerns, known as Old Demdike, was a healer living in a crooked cottage at the foot of Pendle Hill. Skilled in herbal remedies, she was both respected and feared by villagers. One evening, a mysterious boy with coal-black eyes offered her power to protect her family in exchange for her loyalty. Desperate, Demdike accepted a black stone, gaining heightened abilities but at a cost. Her granddaughter Alizon’s curse on a peddler sparked accusations of witchcraft. Demdike and her family were arrested. In her damp cell, weakened and betrayed, she refused the boy’s offer to renounce her family for freedom. Before her death, she cursed her accusers, her spirit lingering on Pendle Hill. Her story became a haunting reminder of injustice, her whispers carried by the wind, ensuring her legacy endured. 
  This is the first in a series of seven audiobooks in the series and I do hope you enjoy this first instalment, and it's only $3, all subsequent will remain at that price. 
  I have worked very hard to provide you with an enjoyable experience, the initial opening credit music which does run to approximately 2 minutes plus, called Haunting Elegy, uses flute and harp to set the scene of witches living life as they could. The closing music ends in a sad way, called Melancholy same instrumental at nearly 3 minutes as the fate that befalls these innocent people awaits them.!  
  The story itself runs to about 15 minutes, and and is narrated in my own voice.  
  The Book itself is divided into parts, Opening, The Gift and Curse, The Pact, The Downfall, The Final Curse and Epilogue.
