About this audiobook
Every year, a rich man named Gervayse Hastings gives a Christmas banquet for ten of the most unhappy people he can find. Each guest is miserable in his own way, and the wine pours from a sepulchral urn. One guest is sure he has been served stewed toads. The talk is of grisly crimes and wretched lives.
Nathaniel Hawthorne's story from Mosses from an Old Manse is a sharp, strange look at sorrow, coldness of heart and what it takes to feel again. Read by Wendy-Maree Holt. Forty-seven minutes.
