  Short Story Press Presents Kidnapped Writer by Eve Gaal 
  Kidnapped Writer is about our melting pot here in America. The main character is Viola and she’s having a horrible day. In fact, it is absolutely the worst day of her life. After years at her newspaper job as a writer, they’ve cut back on everything and put her into the advertising department. On her way out of town for the weekend, she gets kidnapped by a strange family needing her help. Outraged, Viola finds herself held captive by a very old woman in a dingy Italian restaurant. As the grandmother reveals the startling story about her family, Viola quickly forgets her own troubles. The dilemma is that things have changed and even if she wanted to help, it might not be possible. Sympathizing with her kidnappers doesn’t exactly solve her problems. Or does it?

Continuing to produce new editions of Leaves of Grass along with original works, Whitman passed away in 1892. After his death, he was buried in a tomb he designed and had built on a lot in Harleigh Cemetery. Along with Emily Dickinson, he is considered one of America's most important poets.

  LibriVox readers bring you 18 recordings of "The Bells." This was the Fortnightly Poetry selection for January 30 to February 13, 2011.  
   
  "The Bells" is a heavily onomatopoeic poem by Edgar Allan Poe which was not published until after his death in 1849. It is perhaps best known for the diacopic repetition of the word "bells." The poem has four parts to it; each part becomes darker and darker as the poem progresses from "the jingling and the tinkling" of the bells in part 1 to the "moaning and the groaning" of the bells in part 4.

  Step into a world of shadow and sorrow with this haunting audiobook performance of The Raven by Edgar Allan Poe, brought vividly to life by Salvatore Giuseppe Sichi. With a voice that captures both the fragility and descent of the poem’s tormented narrator, Sichi delivers a deeply atmospheric reading that draws listeners into every whispered “Nevermore.” 
  Enhancing the experience is an original Spanish guitar score, also performed by Sichi, weaving a rich emotional undercurrent throughout the narration. The delicate, melancholic melodies echo the poem’s themes of loss, longing, and madness, creating a hypnotic fusion of spoken word and music. 
  This immersive interpretation transforms Poe’s classic into a cinematic auditory journey—perfect for late-night listening, lovers of gothic literature, or anyone seeking a powerful and evocative storytelling experience.
