Audible制作部より
Listeners are bound to find hints of John Williams' classic novel Stoner throughout this introspective and award-winning short story by Mark Ernest Pothier. Like the titular character from the American classic, Potheir's protagonist is an educator taking a hard look at the life he's lead. Veteran narrator John McLain takes on the challenge of performing this story, and lets his deep, casual tone put the listener right in the backyard with Jim as he tries to maintain his simple way of life, undisturbed by outside influences.
