概要

On The Reading Hour, a weekly radio program and podcast, I read aloud from novels, stories, essays, and poems in the public domain—works of literary accomplishment published mostly before 1930. I begin each episode with part of a long work read serially over a number of weeks. During the final twenty-minute segment, one or more shorter works are shared. Welcome!

    With Episode 21 (2.9), we begin the second of the three essays comprising The Maine Woods, "Chesuncook," in which Thoreau navigates from Boston to Bangor, then travels by wagon to the foot of Moosehead Lake, then by canoe to its head, before porting to the Penobscot River. The episode concludes with the second half of Jewett's long ninth chapter, "At Dr. Leslie's."

  • H. D. Thoreau, The Maine Woods, "Ktaadn," §3; poems by Frederick Goddard Tuckerman; Sarah Orne Jewett, A Country Doctor, chs. 3A & 4A

    Episode 16 continues our reading from "Ktaadn." Thoreau's mention of poisoning wolves is the occasion for sharing a Tuckerman sonnet that addresses the topic as well as the 19th-century American poet's well-regarded pastoral ode, "The Cricket." The episode concludes with more of Jewett's A Country Doctor.

    Episode 15 picks up where we left off with Thoreau's trek northward toward Mr. Katahdin in The Maine Woods. Then, having so far presented only the short initial chapter of Sarah Orne Jewett's A Country Doctor, The Reading Hour forges into the story of young Nan Prince.
