  What You’ll Hear in This Adaptation: 
  - A darkly comic tale of marriage, social climbing, and provincial absurdity 
  - A vibrant cast of schemers, dreamers, and fools 
  - A listener-friendly version of Dostoevsky’s underrated masterpiece 
  - A light yet insightful satire on the illusions of nobility and ambition 
  Short, clever, and surprisingly relevant, Uncle’s Dream is a must-listen for fans of classic literature with a satirical twist.

  Queer Little Nightmares

  The fiction and poetry of Queer Little Nightmares reimagines monsters old and new through a queer lens, subverting the horror gaze to celebrate ideas and identities canonically feared in monster lit. Throughout history, monsters have appeared in popular culture as stand-ins for the non-conforming, the marginalized of society. Pushed into the shadows as objects of fear, revulsion, and hostility, these characters have long conjured fascination and self-identification in the LGBTQ+ community, and over time, monsters have become queer icons. 
  In Queer Little Nightmares, creatures of myth and folklore seek belonging and intimate connection, cryptids challenge their outcast status, and classic movie monsters explore the experience of coming into queerness. The characters in these stories and poems — the Minotaur camouflaged in a crowd of cosplayers, a pubescent werewolf, a Hindu revenant waiting to reunite with her lover, a tender-hearted kaiju, a lagoon creature aching for the swimmers above him, a ghost of Pride past — relish their new sparkle in the spotlight. Pushing against tropes that have historically been used to demonize, the queer creators of this collection instead ask: What does it mean to be (and to love) a monster? 
  Contributors include Amber Dawn, David Demchuk, Hiromi Goto, jaye simpson, Eddy Boudel Tan, Matthew J. Trafford, and Kai Cheng Thom.

  "On the Art of Poetry" is a treatise written by Aristotle, a famous Greek philosopher, in the 4th century BC. The work is also known as "Poetics" and is considered one of the most important works of literary criticism in the Western tradition. 
  The treatise consists of 26 chapters in which Aristotle explores the nature of poetry and its various genres, including epic poetry, tragedy, comedy, and the various forms of poetry that exist. Aristotle also discusses the different elements that make up a successful work of poetry, such as plot, character, thought, diction, and spectacle, and offers detailed analysis and examples of each of these elements. 
  Aristotle also examines the psychological and emotional effects that poetry has on its audience and argues that the purpose of poetry is to imitate reality in a way that illuminates universal truths and helps people better understand the world around them. He also stresses the importance of unity, coherence, and logic in poetry, arguing that these qualities are essential for creating a work of art that is both aesthetically pleasing and intellectually satisfying. 
  Overall, "On the Art of Poetry" is a foundational work of literary criticism that has had a profound influence on Western literature and has shaped the way that we think about the art of storytelling and the role that poetry and literature play in our lives.
