LibriVox volunteers bring you 19 recordings of The Heart of the Tree by Henry Cuyler Bunner. This was the Fortnightly Poetry project for July 23, 2023. ------ Henry Cuyler Bunner was a political journalist and the editor of Puck, one of America’s first comic magazines. He was the author of several plays, novels, and books of poems. This project is his debut in the fortnightly poetry projects.

Henry Culyer Bunner is considered a comedic genius of the short story form. Known for choosing distinctly American themes and characters, his stories are often seen as trivial, merely expanded anecdotes, yet they are so vitally treated that they grip and remain, and, often, lift and chasten. Here is "The Nice People," one of his best known sketches - a story of people, assumptions, and societal expectations.
