Graveyard The - A Short Story...

Thomas Mann

At the end of our days we will most likely lie for eternity in the cemetery or graveyard.  Many of these, now wreathed in time, have a romance and overgrown beauty as nature keeps and shelters the dead.  These acres may be the final resting place for those who have passed but for those who visit peace may not be as easy to find.  Grief may still pull at the heart, memories continue to overwhelm, or, even those drawn simply by its history, may encounter different feelings or experiences once inside these cities of the dead.  
 
For our varied and talented authors, a major theme, or indeed character of the stories in this volume is that very location, and how they weave it into their narratives is both fascinating, enlightening and a wonderfully distinct way of telling classic short stories.

The Count of Monte Cristo

Alexandre Dumas

Betrayed by his rivals and falsely accused of sedition by a justice system that is anything but, Edmond Dantes is thrown into the dungeon of the Chateau d'If and left for dead. A chance encounter with a mad priest leads to the resurrection of hope, a frightening escape, and the discovery of untold riches. Twenty four years after his incarceration, Edmond Dantes reemerges as the mysterious and vampire like Count of Monte Cristo, with the sole intention of extracting vengeance on those who profited from his disappearance. This classic thriller by Alexandre Dumas has been reimagined many times over the centuries, but this audiobook recording, taken from the original English translation, edited and performed by award winning narrator Joshua Macrae, takes Dumas' Shakespearean poetry and wit and blends it with the craft of modern audio story telling. It's a wild ride from start to finish . . .
