Have you released these as a podcast? Or would you consider it. I refuse to pay KZbin money and would like to listen to them in the background 😅

[@phillylifer]

I read this thirty five years ago and was deeply struck by the tale and the telling, but went on to forget its title and author and have been looking for it ever since. I am grateful.

[@Frenchblue8]

Oh how wonderful you finally found it! I know what that's like, not only with books but music as well. Odd how wonderful things like that somehow get lost.. I'm very happy for you!

What a beautiful voice! Perfect for this kind of classic story.

[@woah6958]

It sounds a little sped up though, unfortunately.

[@simonsmith5003]

I agree totally with your opinion on the narrators voice and how fitting it is to a story like this. It also helps that the author is obviously of such talent that his works are still being read so long after he wrote them down and will still be in as many years into the future from now,God willing!

[@claresmith9261]

The writing in this is just beyond brilliant, I had forgotten how in-depth, descriptive and the excellent. Effortless flow and ease he has with the English language 👍🏻thanks, really enjoyed this story

[@scottmoseley5122]

Wow. I had never read or heard any RLS before. I am blown away by the wordsmithing and story telling on display. Masterpiece. loved it. .

[@VincentConti-m5j]

No? He wrote in many genres... You know at least one of his stories...does Dr. Jekyll and Mr Hyde ring a bell? Treasure island? Kidnapped???😊

[@junipercreekranch9791]

Scott, try Silverado Sqatters & The Wrecker. Great reads

[@izzytrue8630]

No adverts on audio books please!!! 4.30 mins in ... please give me a break!!Q!

[@user-c4b9b]

Please help yourselves there are many solutions that will allow you to enjoy all of youtube and the only ads you will experience are the sponsors that channels perform themselves in their videos. The first step is to stop using the youtube app on your phone, and if you are on a computer, make use of browser plugins. Search online, filter by date, look for recent queries and suggestions... Stop the exploitation of yourselves, yourselves. Good luck.

[@Valerie-oc3kw]

Forward through it until the last minute. Hit play and let it play until you see the repeat symbol. Touch on it and you can watch it advert free. 😊

[@Jason-ng2vf]

Impeccably voiced 👍 Thanks Arthur!

[@thomashumphries3519]

The storytellers voice sends me back in time...most exelent

[@JaneFrieman]

I am in agreement with your comment.

[@deliacodums8926]

A truly great writer. Such a contrast to the usual trite that is dished up.

[@adamhughes4442]

Books today are mostly garbage. Swamped with crime thrillers, all with similar covers, with contrived plots and boring writing, just to fulfill time-limited contracts. Actually this new millenuim is all shit. What a terribly era to be living in!!!!

[@meredithisme3752]

And of course these days the mandatory gay

[@Frenchblue8]

​@@meredithisme3752the word you're looking for is obligatory; but what a despicable thing to say. I pity you your precious hatreds

[@audreyricci6383]

Please find an older dictionary and look up the original meaning of the word gay. It does not mean homosexual.

[@Aggrobiscuit]

@@adamhughes4442 Think of it this way; it's better to be born after all the great works have been completed, since we have access to all of it. All royalty free and instantly available. Don't look forwards too much to the great works of the future, since we will probably need another world war to create the conditions for them to exist again.

[@AnnaWalsh-qi2kj]

Such an interesting story, beautifully told, very attractive voice. Thank you

[@mysticmeadowshomestead6209]

I needed to hear twice. Such a lot going on in this short story. Cynicism seems to be the driver.

[@democracybacksliding]

The story must have been reworked, perhaps I will find one or two after a search, I'm no writer it would be fun to rewrite this story in today's turmoil. smoldering somewhere in July 2024, if only I could better wrap my head around it's ending. Thank you, Gates of Imagination, for posting this delicate morsel.

[@granthurlburt4062]

Thank you. How terrific is his writing. Very good reading!

[@fullc0de]

What a cracking good story and a terrific narrator!

[@jado5705]

I live in parkstone. A stone throw from Robert Lewis Stevenson Road in Westbourne Bournemouth where Mr Stevenson had a home and wrote along with Mary Shelley Frankenstein and many great books. This is a lovely short story and I have thoroughly enjoyed it.!!!

[@toekafrank6998]

Lovely...author and narrator alike!❤

[@beckymartin1810]

This was a real treat. Excellent

[@feralbluee]

You are a very good reader/actor and so easy to listen to. i was surprised at the suddenness of the end* as well as the ending itself, but a story like this in the hands of a master craftsman is emotionally understood and gives thought to the circumstances. so thanks much and i subscribed :) 🌷🌱 * (where you gave us space to react before talking, which some readers do not understand.)

[@Charles-oo8bq]

A masterpiece ✨️

[@judikingsman6132]

Mr Lawrence Fox sounds a bit like this voice. Thank you Mr Lane ❤

[@davidwebster3107]

Nasty and bonkers then?…

[@safiamohamud9263]

Very beautiful and mesmerizing voice

[@CJ-uf6xl]

Fantastic!

[@marckg6950]

I did not know RLS, was such a prolific writer.

[@adamhughes4442]

I did!

[@Detroitmamma]

Im sorry 1400s to 2024 u are a sum Total of yr choices Blaming others for yr poverty will never cut it! ❤Detroit Mamma absolutely loves this story ❤️ 🎉

[@evettbradshaw-pn7id]

If you steal from a rich man you are just a thief If you steal from a poor man you are just a thief If you steal from a thief you are just a thief Tell your horror stories of being robbed Theft is disabling A Criminal Mind is a person always looking for a crime to commit even of loved ones, crime makes Criminals happy.

[@madamlakwatsera5674]

Thanks

[@philfluther2713]

Hear, hear!

[@ABCallaghan-e6y]

Wonderful story and reading!

[@albertlopez2237]

This narrator is a modern day Alexzander Scorby

[@paramedicchrisbookseries]

Great narration

[@KarenBryant-qv9nm]

Thank you.

[@StalinLovsMsmZioglowfagz]

I love RLS, great narration.

[@frederickacharles552]

Thank you

[@blueridgepics]

Why are so many readers in such a hurry?

[@Aggrobiscuit]

A good story about the futility of trying to help those intent on repeating the same mistakes.

[@ABeautfulMess]

OMG the narrator is wonderful..

[@nutwatch1854]

The video description really reads like it was written by ChatGPT.

[@DoahnKea_Tuber]

@nutwatch1854: Thank you - We're sorry you feel that way.

[@BryinWillis-e8g]

Complete

[@liddylisa]

The commercials wake me up .

[@izzytrue8630]

Read far too fast ... so no feeling!!!

[@jamiestipelcovich5390]

I prefer the fast read, it’s about how fast as people talk so it’s truly like listening to a story, the ones that draw everything out make me forget the beginning of sentences

[@EileenHall-j9f]

I thought the narration was excellent. Conveyed the time very well. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

[@TakeMeHome7]

I'm not an English native speaker so keep slow. Or give subtitles in Brazilian Portuguese 😊

[@henrikibjensen3869]

Sorry, the reading is actually much to fast for such a complex text.

[@annecampbell9236]

Why sooooo fast!

[@Shelly-mz9yf]

Sounds like Benedict Cumberbatch a most awesome orator 1😃😃

[@john1653]

Too many ads...I cant finish this story.

[@audreyricci6383]

I have the skip icon on my phone to omit ads.

[@lavoxii]

The speed of reading it’s too fast.

[@vmgarner09]

You can change playback speed in KZbin settings

[@Chipdenn]

So many ad it is so annoying

[@christianman5092]

Damm commercials

[@MarilynLacoste]

No

[@Gday09]

[@jeanniemullinder9038]

'Balard' ????? do you mean ballad ? ha ha

[@TuringTalesTV]

Really relished the layered characterization of Villon. The way his inner conflicts and moral struggles are portrayed amid the stark realities of poverty and crime is truly compelling.

[@Laura-tp8wz]

Thanks

[@sharingmyfun8804]

Beautifully narrated. 5:58

[@kmaudiobooks]

Thanks for taking me away to that cold Parisian nightmare...

[@visceralvore]

Do you know any more gripping tales like this ?

[@evettbradshaw-pn7id]

Criminal Minds defined always looking for a crime to commit even of loved ones, Crime makes Criminals happy.

[@democracybacksliding]

But no, The poet vagabond he claimed to hate his crime, when he spoke of his hands.

[@barbaragonzales4575]

Great story beautifully presented

[@earthcat]

Perfect.

[@veritas6335]

In lesser hands, Victorian prose is overly florid and so cumbersome as to be almost impenetrable and frankly tiresome to listen to In the hands of a master storyteller like Stevenson however, it actually becomes literature. Well narrated. .

[@emcarver8983]

Lesser hands? Victorian stories were written IN VICTORIAN. TIMES!? 🤦

[@raggedbreath]

​@@emcarver8983 not sure the OP is suggesting it's not. Just that there were less able Victorian writers

[@ketaki75]

The narrator deserves all praise for the laudable work he has done.

[@woah6958]

Listen to Olalla, that's tiresome😂..and it *is* Stevenson.

[@nancyM1313]

thank you🍃⚘🍃

[@evelanpatton]

A bit of EQUALITY found in the CLASS MORALITY. Then & now could still be said truth when survival is no longer just, free like when twined indigenously- land to hand. Oh, SOCIETY…great & lowly, rough & civil, luxuries & survival, what have we here & now, then & gone. Lovely pieces of mirroring from high & mighty with low & manly. Verses of rue.

[@amig9318]

So Beautiful. ❤️

[@CharlesAbernathy-u6r]

I don't believe what the honorable gentleman is saying. Many impoverished people pray and have a good nature. However, they live forever in a state of impecunious.

[@carolmurray187]

Reading too quickly without expression for me.

[@Detroitmamma]

❤love it Detroit Mamma 1500 or 2024 we are all a sum total of our choices!

[@helentaylor1222]

I really enjoyed this. I've met so many poets and vagabonds and this was their true same personality. Thank you so much.

[@Tinyflypie]

Thanks.

[@darrenpearce6617]

Villon played by Ronald Colman in If I Were King and subject of The Vagabond King. Great stuff. Never heard of this Stevenson story.

[@huggiver1221]

Thanks for warning, I won't listen now 😢

[@36cmbr]

Brilliant story telling about with a theme of man vs nature.

[@mariameere5807]

Excellence 🌟 Thank you so much and a happy new year to you!🕊🤍🕊

[@maryannet2339]

❤thank you for the story ❤

[@ggcctv9575]

Spoiled by commercials- pity 😮 Unsubscribed

[@lorafanter3804]

Commercials...like ads? Like at beginning or throughout? Bummer. I don't get ads so wasn't sure.

[@magi267]

I was looking for an audio book yo put me to sleep. This did that. I'm now hoping it will do it again.

[@EileenHall-j9f]

Supposedly the ads are necessary to fund the channel. Unfortunately a sign of the times. Nevertheless worthy content.

[@lyndabrennan4560]

Just in time for bedtime, really appreciated thank you so much for your hard work helping people like myself to sleep better 🙏💛💚💙

[@DS-um9hi]

The down side is it takes me about three nights to listen to them cos I fall asleep half way through and forgot where I got too 😅
