Story
夏目漱石の代表作『吾輩は猫である』の(一)~(三)までを収録。
(一)主人の英語教師の苦沙弥先生は書斎にこもってばかりだが、勤勉とはほど遠い。涎を垂らして居眠りばかりしている。見栄っ張りの知ったかぶり。ある時、友人の美学者の迷亭が語った「高名な画家アンドレア・デル・サルト」の言葉に、なるほど彼もそう言ったか、と相槌を打ち、さっそく自身も迷亭の言うように写生を試みるのだが、それは迷亭のまったくのでまかせだった。
(二)猫の大王のような「車屋の黒」は、吾輩が鼠も捕ったことがないことを馬鹿にする。吾輩は何でも食うので気にしないが、正月、主人の残した餅に食いついた時は驚いた。もちが歯に食い込んで噛み切れない。苦しみのあまり、立ち上がって前足で取ろうとした奇妙な「猫踊り」を見つかり大笑いされてしまった。傷心を癒すには、美貌猫の三毛子と話すに限る。新参者の吾輩にお師匠さんのことを説明する「天璋院様のご祐筆の妹の…」のやりとりは傑作場面のひとつ。その三毛子を、しばらくして訪ねると、どうも様子がおかしい。どうやら三毛子は死んだらしい。戒名まで付けてもらって女師匠らに惜しまれている。彼らは、薄汚い野良猫の吾輩のせいで病気になったのだと言っている。
(三)吾輩は、世間から少し注目され始めた。苦沙弥先生は日曜日の午後、硯と原稿用紙を前に何やら唸っている。やがて迷亭が来る。寒-

【解説】 井伏鱒二の処女作「山椒魚」に続く佳作。「花に嵐のたとえもあるぞ さよならだけが人生だ(『厄除詩集』)」という井伏作品の放浪的基調低音に通じる抒情的作品。 私は散歩の途中、沼池のほとりで猟銃で撃たれて苦しんでいる雁(がん)を見つけた。抱き上げたときの羽毛や体の温かみ、意外に重たい目方に、その時の私の思い屈した心は慰められる。私は、どうしても丈夫にしてやりたい思いに駆られ、家に連れて帰り治療し、羽を切り、”サワン”と名付けた。雁との心通わせる日々は続く。――しかしある月夜のこと、けたたましいサワンの鳴き声がするので出てみると、屋根の上にのぼって、飛び去っていく3匹の雁と交信している様子だった。「サワンに対する私の愛着を裏切ってかれが遠くに逃げ去るはずはない」。けれどサワンは、月の明るい夜更けに限って鳴き声をたてるようになり、そして……。 【朗読時間】 20分12秒 【朗読】wis ※透明感と落ち着きのある声で親しまれている女性朗読家です。

【解説】 長井代助は、大学卒業後も、実業家の父に依存して、定職も持たずに気ままに暮らす高等遊民である。ときどき実家に金をもらいに行き、実社会のあくせくした様を半ば見下している。これと対照的に親友の平岡は、銀行に就職して社会の苦労を舐めている。共通の友人である菅沼の妹、三千代と代助とは実は思い合っていたが、平岡が代助に三千代との斡旋を依頼し、その結果、三千代は平岡と結婚する。しかし、平岡は、部下の公金使い込みの責任を負う形で辞職して帰京。代助に就職斡旋を依頼し、三千代は金の融通を依頼する。代助は、それらを実家に持ち込むが、いずれも断られ、そこで自らの立場を自覚する。 代助は、心臓を患う三千代としばしば会い、とうとう三千代への愛に改めて気が付き、求愛の告白をする。三千代は、今更ひどいと泣くが、最後はその求愛を受け入れ、今後待ち受けている苦難をともにする覚悟をした。代助は父親からのたびたびの縁談を断り、その怒りを買う。そして遂に代助は平岡に事を打ち明け、三千代を譲ってくれるように談判したところ、平岡は絶交を言い渡しただけでなく、代助の父親に事の顛末を詳細に告げる挙に出た。兄が父親の使者となって現れ、平岡の話が事実であることを確認し、実家からの絶縁を言い渡した。代助は頭が焦げる思いをしながら、職を探しに街に飛び出した。「ああ動く、世の中が動く」と傍の人間に聞こえるほどにいいながら・・・。...

【解説】 大阪道修町の裕福な商家の娘、春琴は、美貌ながら9歳のとき眼病で失明する。そ れからは、検校の下で琴や三味線の稽古に励み、自らも師匠となって人に教えるようになった。一方、身の回りの世話をする丁稚の佐助は彼女に思慕の情を持ち、自分でも夜中に密かに三味線を練習し始める。それが主人と春琴の耳に入り、以降、春琴の弟子となって琴を習うようになった 。 春琴は佐助との結婚を親に勧められるのを拒絶するが、やがて身ごもる。周囲の思惑に二人は強く関係を否定し、我が子を里子に出してしまうのだが、それでも、同居し師弟の関係は続けるのだった。佐助は年下の春琴をいつまでもお師匠様と呼び、献身的に仕えた。そんなある日、稽古がひときわ厳しい春琴は人の恨みを買い、顔に熱湯をかけられ大火傷を負う。春琴が頭巾をかぶって人目を避けようとするのをみて、佐助は誰よりも胸を痛め悩んだ。そして、自ら針で目を刺し、失明することを選ぶのであった―。 谷崎潤一郎の耽美主義文学の名作で、数度にわたり映画化もされている。マゾヒ ズムを超越した春琴と佐助との師弟関係を描いている。 【朗読】wis ※ 透明感と落ち着きのある声で親しまれている女性朗読家です。

Story
【解説】「屋根裏の散歩者」は密室殺人事件の傑作で、発表当時、世間から非難を浴びたという問題作。卒業後も親の仕送りで下宿で暮らす郷田三郎は、屋根裏の散歩で20人もの下宿人の意外な姿を盗み見ることがこの上ない快楽となった。ある日、虫の好かない遠藤が口をあけて寝ている姿を見て、ある「犯罪(殺意)」に夢想して興奮し、実行に移すのだが・・・。名探偵、明智小五郎とのスリルあるやりとりが物語を終焉へと誘っていく。 「人間椅子」は、椅子職人の異常な告白の物語。ある日、洋館に住む美しい閨秀作家の佳子のもとに届いた手紙に綴られた告白では、自分が外人ホテルからの特別注文で作った肘掛椅子を愛するあまり、その中に自分の体を忍び込ませたという。皮一枚隔てて触れる様々な外国人の男女の肉体の感触に陶酔するが、やがて彼の欲求は日本人のそれへと沸き立っていく。そしてその椅子は、ある洋館に引き取られていったのだが・・・。 【朗読者】wis(透明感のある声で知られる女性朗読家です)

【解説】 デンマークの世界的童話作家アンデルセンの珠玉の名作。数々の童話の翻訳で知られる山室静氏の名訳で全文(全33夜)を朗読。 『「絵のない絵本」は連作短編小説、あるいは散文詩集というべきもので、屋根裏に住む貧しい画家に、幼なじみの月が、夜々訪れてきて、自分の見たことを語ったのを、画家が書きとめた形式になっていますが、これは彼の実際の経験から思いついたものだそうです。 少年時代のアンデルセンは、遅ればせながらにラテン語学校の給費生になりましたが、卒業を前にして、いろいろの悩みでひどい神経衰弱になり、退学してしまいます。そしてコペンハーゲンに帰って屋根裏に下宿して大学の入試にそなえながら、彼の最も苦しい時期を送ります。このときに一夜、窓の外に幼なじみの月を見出してなぐさめられたのだそうです。 題材は、「旅することは生きること!旅の生活は私にとって最上の学校だった」と言い、生涯を旅から旅に過ごしたアンデルセンらしく、インドやグリーンランドやパリやローマ、さてはサハラ砂漠と、世界各地から拾い集めてあります。主調をなすものは、無邪気なもの、若わかしいものの賛美と、寂しく生きて死んでゆく無名の人々への深い同情でしょうか。これは、彼の童話に通じる心情でしょう。 いずれも、手の中に入りそうな短編ですが、誰かが「クルミの殻の中のホメロス」と評したように、すぐれた人生の断面をさりげなく描

「吾輩は猫である」の十、十一の最終の2章を朗読。
「十」では主人の苦沙弥の寝起きの悪さの描写から始まる。娘3人が騒々しく顔を洗い学校の支度をしていても、細君が箒とはたきで音を立てながら掃除しても、布団をかぶったまま起きようとしない。裏の車屋の子供の八っちゃんが大きな声で泣き出したので、癇癪を起してやっと起きるが、それでもすぐには布団から離れない。やっと鯨の遠吠えのような声であくびをして顔を洗いに出る。次に子供3人の観察だ。無分別な振る舞いにもてあまし気味だが、絶対的放任主義で何も言わない。やがて、姪の女学生の雪江がやってきた。女二人で姦しく話す話す。保険会社の勧誘への主人の珍応答、八木独仙の婦人会での迷演説の事々。やがて泥棒がつかまって盗品を取りに警察署に行っていた主人が帰ってきて、つまらぬ説教を受ける。そして、生徒の古井武右衛門が苦悶の様子でやってきた。悪友と謀って、あの生意気な金田の娘に悪戯で艶書を送ったはいいが、出し主として自分の名前を貸してしまい、後になってその悪戯で退校になるのではないかと心配になって相談に来たものだった。しかし、苦沙弥はろくに取り合わず、そのうちやってきた寒月君と放談を始めたので、武右衛門は見切りをつけて帰っていった。

Sydney Shaw, like every single woman in New York, has terrible luck with dating. She’s seen it all: men who lie in their dating profile, men who stick her with the dinner bill, and worst of all, men who can't shut up about their mothers. But finally, she hits the jackpot. Her new boyfriend is utterly perfect. He's charming, handsome, and works as a doctor at a local hospital. Sydney is swept off her feet. Then the brutal murder of a young woman—the latest in a string of deaths across the coast—confounds police. The primary suspect? A mystery man who dates his victims before he kills them.

Story
For a thousand years the ash fell and no flowers bloomed. For a thousand years the Skaa slaved in misery and lived in fear. For a thousand years the Lord Ruler, the "Sliver of Infinity," reigned with absolute power and ultimate terror, divinely invincible. Then, when hope was so long lost that not even its memory remained, a terribly scarred, heart-broken half-Skaa rediscovered it in the depths of the Lord Ruler's most hellish prison.

Story
The tales of The Silmarillion are set in an age when Morgoth, the first Dark Lord, dwelt in Middle-earth, and the High Elves made war upon him for the recovery of the Silmarils, the jewels containing the pure light of Valinor. Included on the recording are several shorter works. The Ainulindalë is a myth of the Creation and in the Valaquenta the nature and powers of each of the gods is described. The Akallabêth recounts the downfall of the great island kingdom of Númenor at the end of the Second Age, and Of the Rings of Power tells of the great events at the end of the Third Age.

Feyre has undergone more trials than one human woman can carry in her heart. Though she’s now been granted the powers and lifespan of the High Fae, she is haunted by her time Under the Mountain and the terrible deeds she performed to save the lives of Tamlin and his people. As her marriage to Tamlin approaches, Feyre’s hollowness and nightmares consume her. She finds herself split into two different people: one who upholds her bargain with Rhysand, High Lord of the feared Night Court, and one who lives out her life in the Spring Court with Tamlin.
