[@winifredgubb7768]

Was a treat to hear a story so well read.... I felt as though I was there

[@SecretsNarratedStories-l7t]

I'm so glad you enjoyed the storytelling! It's amazing how a well-told narrative can really transport us to another place and time. Jack London had such a gift for making us feel like we're living in the heart of the story. What part of the story stood out to you the most? Did it make you think about any similar experiences you've had in your own life?

I must have been a teenager the last time I read anything by Jack London. I think I've missed a lot.

[@NaturesEyesAndMouth]

I didn't realize I needed to listen to this today but thanks!

[@SecretsNarratedStories-l7t]

I'm glad this story came to you at the right time! It's amazing how certain things we didn't expect can resonate so deeply. What part of the story stood out to you the most?

[@billschmidt874]

I’ve been a Jack London fan since my father read to me his short stories at a very young age.

[@SecretsNarratedStories-l7t]

That's such a beautiful memory! It's amazing how stories can connect us to our past and shape our love for literature. Jack London's ability to weave adventure with deep themes is truly timeless. Do you have a favorite story or moment from his works that stands out to you? I’d love to hear what resonates most with you.

Thanks for uploading this 😀

[@vavilovasvetlana9044]

Jack London is one my lovely writer;I read many stories of this writer, but this story see for the irst time.

[@nnd5768]

Do you read in Russian language?

[@SecretsNarratedStories-l7t]

That's awesome! Jack London has such a unique style, doesn't he? His ability to capture the harsh realities of nature and human struggle is so powerful. What was your favorite part of his stories before? Do you find his writing more about survival or the human spirit?

[@vavilovasvetlana9044]

I read Jack London only in Russian. I had the 12-volum collection and then i was not ready to read in English. I completely agree with your opinion.Thanks.

[@AuroraBoarder1]

I'm from Oakland CA, and have visited Jack London Square many times. Somehow, I never equated him and his wonderful stories of the Great White North with Oakland. This is great to hear!

[@SecretsNarratedStories-l7t]

That's fascinating! Jack London's connection to Oakland often surprises people, given how vividly he wrote about the wilderness and the Great White North. Do you think growing up in a bustling port city like Oakland might have influenced his storytelling in ways we don't immediately recognize?

[@AuroraBoarder1]

@SecretsNarratedStories-l7t - good point. I didn't know he grew up there.

[@Niuwuning]

I love this narrator’s voice, so buttery smooth

[@SecretsNarratedStories-l7t]

I totally agree! The narrator's voice has such a calming effect, doesn't it? It really brings the story to life. What do you think about the way the narrator captured the essence of the characters in this short story? Does it make you feel like you're right there in that far-off country with them?

[@kenkrausse3624]

Many thanks

[@grassroot1100]

His short story, " All gold canyon,," is a good read. Others also, thanks

[@SecretsNarratedStories-l7t]

I totally agree with you! "All Gold Canyon" is such a captivating story, the way Jack London paints a vivid picture of the wild and the human struggle within it. Have you read any other stories by him that left a similar impact on you? His writing always seems to explore the raw nature of life in such an intense way. What do you think draws you most to his storytelling?

[@SecretsNarratedStories-l7t]

Jack London's stories have such a unique way of capturing nature and human struggle, don’t they? What did you think stood out the most in "All Gold Canyon" compared to "In a Far Country"?

[@jesseserna8424]

I just finished an audio book about Lewis and Clark now I’m addicted to frontier adventure etc.thank you 🚛

[@SecretsNarratedStories-l7t]

That sounds amazing! Lewis and Clark’s journey really opens up a world of adventure and discovery. It’s interesting how frontier exploration seems to captivate the imagination. Have you come across any other books or stories that take you deep into untamed lands like that? It’s fascinating to see how different writers depict the spirit of adventure.

It got brorantic at the end, good story.

[@ubangis1]

Now that was one great story. Read some time ago, as I was (and still am) a fan of Jack L. But forgotten. And narated beautifully. Bit too quick for me, non-native English speaker, still it was gorgeous reading. Thank you!

[@kellimoorer9032]

I went to a bookstore once and asked for Jack London books. He said those are boys books. I said I’ve been a Jack London fan my whole life at the time I was 40 years old a woman I turned around and just walked out and just gave him the funniest look I couldn’t believe you said that to me.💚🧜‍♀️

Useless trivia fact: Jack London was the first author to make a million dollars though his writing.

[@quickchris10]

How can this reader pronounce ``tow'' like ``Tao;'' rhyming it with ``cow?!'' Any adult knows how to say ``tow truck'' and would know how to read this. Must be AI. And it said ``rebel'' as if it was being used as a noun, when using it as a verb, when the accent is then on the second syllable.

[@ubangis1]

It was not AI. One can always recognize AI reading.

Jack London sure had a crush on the so-called "teutonic" race. I'm starting to see him in a different light than when i was young and stupid.

[@Lmr6973]

One minute in and the first thought tjat comes to mind is To bad the ones flooding our southern boarder don't feel the same.

[@susannarobinson1562]

That's your takeaway?

[@Lmr6973]

@susannarobinson1562 no at 1 minute that was my thought.

[@mirrage42]

You don’t need to capitalize the word “to” in the middle of a sentence, and it is spelled “too”. Two, to, too. These are homonyms, words that sound alike but with different meanings and spelling. Like the words “boarder” and “border”. The way you spelled it refers to a person who pays rent for a room and meals in a home, usually occupied by multiple people. Border is the political lines we humans delineate our countries with.

[@Lmr6973]

@mirrage42 Thank you so much for taking the time out of your day to share your knowledge of the English language. Sorry for any mistakes I may have made in this thank you note.
