  • The Troubled Man's Medicine by William Hugh ~ Full Audiobook
    Jun 17 2025
    The Troubled Man's Medicine by William Hugh audiobook. Imagine settling into your headphones and instantly being swept into the shadowy corridors of a mind on the brink, where every whispered confession and pounding heartbeat feels as real as your own—this is the spellbinding promise of The Troubled Man’s Medicine by William Hugh in its audiobook form. From the first echo of the narrator’s resonant timbre, you’ll be drawn into a world where medicine becomes both salvation and curse, where a single vial holds the power to unlock terrifying memories and hidden truths long buried in the darkest recesses of one man’s soul. The story unfolds in haunting clarity: a man, haunted by guilt and desperate for relief, stumbles upon a mysterious remedy rumored to banish fear forever, only to discover that healing comes at a price more harrowing than the pain it purports to cure. Each chapter builds with the precision of a finely tuned heartbeat, the pacing mirroring the protagonist’s own frantic descent into obsession. As the narrator’s voice shifts from hushed, intimate confessions to urgent, breathless reveals, you’ll find your own pulse quickening, your senses heightened by the crackle of suspense that hangs in every line. And because this is the audiobook experience, you’re not merely reading— you’re living every tremor of doubt, every surge of hope, every agonizing twist. By the final revelation, you’ll be left questioning not only the boundaries of medicine and morality, but the depths of your own courage. Trust the power of William Hugh’s riveting storytelling and the immersive artistry of this audio performance to deliver an experience so gripping, so visceral, that you’ll forget you’re listening—and will only remember that you can’t afford to miss a single word.

  • Gravenhurst, or Thoughts on Good and Evil by William Henry Smith ~ Full Audiobook
    Jun 16 2025
    Gravenhurst, or Thoughts on Good and Evil by William Henry Smith audiobook. Step into the mist-shrouded world of Gravenhurst and let the velvety tones of its audiobook narrator carry you on a journey where every whisper of wind, every creak of ancient floorboards, and every hushed confession resonates with the question at the heart of William Henry Smith’s masterpiece: what truly divides good from evil? From the very first syllable, you’re drawn into the crumbling grandeur of an English manor and the dark secrets its inhabitants have buried for generations. As the narrator’s rich baritone shifts effortlessly from urgent revelation to contemplative rumination, you’ll feel the weight of moral dilemmas as though they were your own—each dilemma springing from Smith’s graceful, probing prose. Moonlit rendezvous in neglected gardens, clandestine debates by candlelight, and thunderous revelations in echoing halls all come alive in soundscapes that blur the line between history and myth, intellect and instinct. More than a philosophical treatise, Gravenhurst is a riveting portrait of human nature, and this audiobook transforms Smith’s eloquent meditation on sin, redemption, and the shadowlands in between into an immersive theatre of the mind. Allow yourself to be captivated by every measured pause, every subtle inflection, every moment when you’re forced to ask: if you could choose between comfort and conscience, which would you embrace? Press play—and discover why listeners everywhere are enthralled by the magnetic power of this unforgettable exploration of good and evil. Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Mosquitoes by William Faulkner ~ Full Audiobook
    Jun 12 2025
    Mosquitoes by William Faulkner audiobook. Step aboard William Faulkner’s riotous debut, Mosquitoes, and let its luscious rhythms and razor-sharp wit carry you away on an unforgettable auditory voyage. In this early masterpiece, a motley crew of artists, writers and playboys gather for a steamy Gulf of Mexico cruise, sparking hilarious rivalries and intoxicating flirtations beneath their brimmed hats while Faulkner’s language dances with sly irony and vivid, sun-drenched imagery. The audiobook’s dynamic narration amplifies every jab of dialogue and swirl of sea breeze, capturing the characters’ mounting frustrations— between the insecure poet Gordon, the worldly Cleveland Mary and her mischievous niece Mary-Love—like a perfectly timed performance piece. You’ll find yourself chuckling at their pretentious posturing, transfixed by Faulkner’s early experimentation with voice and point of view, and carried along by the narrator’s seamless shifts between playful banter and moments of surprising tenderness. If you crave a richly textured escape where the salt spray tangles with high-society farce, Mosquitoes in audio form delivers Faulkner’s youthful audacity straight to your ears, leaving you eager for every twist, every stinging barb—and every breathtaking glimpse of the author who would become one of America’s greatest literary voices.

I've now listened to several of these 800+ (and growing) episodes/books, and sampled many more. They are read well, for the most part, and cover a broad range of topics, authors and time periods. There are both fiction and non-fiction, children's, YA and adult titles. I assume all are in the public domain, whether by lapsed or expired copyright. A number of the series' titles are otherwise unavailable for free through Audible, but the edition for sale on Audible will likely be a better reading or translation. I haven't checked, but some of the more obsure titles are likely not available at all. Some have attributions to Librivox, but a variety of sources seem to be drawn from. The biggest drawback, due to the podcast/episode structure of the collection, is that you can't search by title or author, only by upload date. You must load page after page until you find (or don't find) a title or author you're hoping is in the collection. But what do you want for FREE? There are both diamonds and lumps of coal in this mine. You just have to keep digging until you find your diamonds.
