You have been on a roll lately Mr. French. Every week is more impressive than the last. You're at your best when the world is chaotic. 🌿

[@FrenchEdward06]

It's always chaotic, but now it's especially insane incomprehensible..and I'm looking for stories to help me focus. Peace and safety ggwoman. E.E.F.

@@FrenchEdward06 You too, my friend. You too.

[@jonathanwpressman]

@@FrenchEdward06 It's scary but it will level off. I have deep admiration for the kids growing up today. It's an awesome generation.

[@Offshoreorganbuilder]

Thanks, for this grim tale. Excellent narration, as always.

[@Firecracker66]

I know, right? 5 different voices on the porch - brava !

[@FrenchEdward06]

I actually hesitated to present it. But the moment I felt the resistance I knew I must read it. E.E.F. Peace and safety.

[@FrenchEdward06]

@@Firecracker66 I don't feel like doing voices is my "Thang," but I kinda painted myself into that corner. I think the rest of it was respectable and the heart of the written word. E.E.F.

[@feralbluee]

@@FrenchEdward06 it was and well done, too. voices were so of the region. i liked your sheriff.

[@darrenjump4579]

This is my second listen (I dropped off listening the first time). A great choice and brilliant reading (as always), stay safe and well my friend.

[@FrenchEdward06]

Thanks Darren. I've heard that I put people to sleep. Yes, I just stumbled onto this story and realized this was the perfect time to read it. Peace and Safety. E.E.F.

[@jonathanwpressman]

I'm digging the new intros

[@FrenchEdward06]

Why not. Right? E.E.F.

[@feralbluee]

yup, that’s perfect. :) 🙃🐕‍🦺

[@Paxtonparsnip]

This man has class! No question about it!

[@horrorhabit8421]

Fantastic reading. I was interested to hear this, as I was unaware of it. Until tonight, I thought the only horror story Faulkner wrote was "A Rose for Emily."

[@johnmitchelljr]

What a gift sharing your gift. Makes life worth living. Thank you.

[@narrowdeer]

Beautifully read, thank you.

[@toekafrank6998]

Salve for the soul. Thank you.🦉🇲🇩

[@FrenchEdward06]

Glad to hear that. E.E.F.

[@cetviesauthor-writer.3043]

a blue staffordshire bull terrier there, i miss subtitles. very nice intro!

[@richardwetzel3343]

Excellent

[@ufosrus]

Why would a Nobel prize in literature turn anybody off? It should actually impress the listeners. Anyhow, Faulkner is one of our greatest American authors. And thanks for softening your elegant British accent to accommodate an American author. By the way, I prefer to listen to an Englishman narrate stories written by British authors. 😉

[@FrenchEdward06]

I was a bit facetious with that Nobel Prize wisecrack. I can completely understand why you would prefer native English narrators reading British literature. I only attempt it because I love the work of the British authors. The humor appeals to me especially. Thanks for listening. E.E.F.

[@lawsonj39]

Faulkner reworked this material and included it in The Hamlet, the first novel in the so-called Snopes trilogy.

[@ruyschedmondson3813]

So yeah, I beat the sh*t out of a lawyer!!! I am now going to prison, great advice mr. French.😂

[@williamfawkes8379]

Possessed of such determination, but without a compass, it's easy to lose the path. Thanks for the story.

[@FrenchEdward06]

Hey, thank YOU for tuning in. Peace and safety. E.E.F.

[@wretchardkimball9049]

Best intro ever!

[@johnga911]

Noah thing made me laugh out loud

[@sunsunsunh]

thank you, sir

[@blixten2928]

The gritty, racist reality of the American south. So different from the fantasies and imaginary terrors of other writers... Very wonderfully read.

[@terrycloth6380]

Most excellent!

[@FrenchEdward06]

Nobel prize winning author. Peace and safety. E.E.F.

[@GradKat]

Excellent!

[@FrenchEdward06]

Faulkner is obviously a great writer. No backlash on this one yet. Interesting. E.E.F.

[@williamconnors1510]

Wow...You always surprise me. I totally didn't expect to do a spit take during your introduction.

[@FrenchEdward06]

That's a messy reaction, William. I hope we didn't mess up your computer too much. Peace and safety. E.E.F.

[@williamconnors1510]

@@FrenchEdward06 it was worth it.

[@feralbluee]

interesting Faulkner. . . Puffy - the attack poodle. omg, LOL 🐩

[@spanishDoll1]

Good luck on the swim team effers lol

[@jonathanwpressman]

What is it about? Resentment?

[@FrenchEdward06]

It's about 36 minutes and 47 seconds......but seriously, YES. That and more, I suspect. It's a neat little portrait of the South in 1920's America. E.E.F.

[@Firecracker66]

A ghoulish tale introduced by a disembodied head... What's not to love. P.S. I like the legal advice at the end lol

[@FrenchEdward06]

Oh, oh. I didn't think anyone would make it to the end. It's just a jest, internet.

ed: you need to wax and grow out your eyebrows. hint hint. Also try red contact lenses. sexy, yet anxiety inducing. :)

[@feralbluee]

sorry,, edward's brows are jusr fine. they're part of his being. and red lenses would be so hokey. those eyes are totally amazing. Let French be French. he is so effective.
