  Title: Three and One Are One 
  Author: Ambrose Bierce 
  Narrator: Jonathan Dunne 
  Original Publication: 1908 
  Public Domain: Yes 
  Series Placement: Timeless Terrors No. 88 
  Description: 
  Three and One Are One is a chilling example of Ambrose Bierce’s bleak, cerebral approach to supernatural horror—where logic, identity, and reality fracture under unseen pressure. Told with Bierce’s signature restraint and irony, the story unfolds as a quiet domestic mystery that gradually reveals something profoundly unnatural at its core. 
  Rather than relying on spectacle, Bierce builds terror through implication and intellectual unease. The narrative presents a seemingly impossible condition—three individuals bound by a single, unsettling truth—forcing the listener to confront contradictions that reason cannot resolve. The horror lies not in what is shown, but in what must be accepted. 
  Central to Three and One Are One is Bierce’s fascination with fractured identity, unreliable perception, and the thin boundary between rational explanation and supernatural inevitability. The story suggests that reality itself may be subject to rules we only dimly understand, and that some truths, once perceived, cannot be unseen. 
  Narrated by Amazon-bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne, this performance emphasizes Bierce’s dry precision, mounting dread, and philosophical menace. Three and One Are One remains a striking example of late nineteenth-century weird fiction—where terror emerges from paradox, and certainty dissolves into something far more disturbing.

  After London

  Jefferies' novel can be seen as an early example of "post-apocalyptic fiction." After some sudden and unspecified catastrophe has depopulated England, the countryside reverts to nature, and the few survivors to a quasi-medieval way of life.The first part of the book, "The Relapse into Barbarism", is the account by some later historian of the fall of civilisation and its consequences, with a loving description of nature reclaiming England. The second part, "Wild England", is an adventure set many years later in the wild landscape and society.The book is not without its flaws (notably the abrupt and unsatisfying ending) but is redeemed by the quality of the writing, particularly the unnervingly prophetic descriptions of the post-apocalyptic city and countryside

  Homeric Hymns are thirty-three poems each paying homage to a certain Greek god. Only a few of the poems are more than 250 lines while the rest are about a dozen lines each. They are written in Homeric style and traditionally attributed to Homer but their true provenance is unknown. The Epigrams are a series of fragments on disparate topics including sailors, children and potters and are similarly attributed to Homer although it appears Hesiod and others wrote some of them. Finally, Battle of Frogs and Mice is a light-weight parody -- literally, at one-fiftieth the number of lines -- of Homer's famous battle of Greeks and Trojans epic, Illiad. - Summary by Arthur Krolman
