The Breathing Method. Stephen King. Advanced English

[@blackwidowspider9852]

This narrator is very good I feel him to be 1 of my favorites. As anyone Read the book The oldest living vampire series ? That narrator is most fantastic

[@-Reagan]

Thank you for the recommendation, it’s a charmed match to find a skillfully crafted book by a gifted storyteller, that is also read by a talented voice in timbre, tone and rhythm, expressive acting. The musical score to breathe the story to life. Yet, you never know what chemistry you’ll concoct when blindly choosing from the mix of authors to readers, mix-and-match. As such, gggI do enjoy recommendations!

[@traceythomas3027]

Was it the same reader who read The Jaunt? I didn't bother to look to see who read it...But I was as engrossed in that story as well as this one. GREAT. Although, through the years, I've read just about everything Mr. King has written...even Mr. Staub!! LOL.

[@SistarVi]

Yes I love that series

[@angelabennett8245]

Stephen Kings stories always start out boring, but I stick with them and end up on a roller coaster ride of fear, laughter, and calm. Too me he is the greatest writer, and each story is as great as the one I read before it. Thank you.

Another Frank Muller treat. Stephen King would say of Frank Muller, "I write the books but then Frank brings them to life".

[@MsIvyLeigh]

Oh thank you so much for naming him! I was desperate to know his name so that I can look him up and indulge in more of his work. I'm so spellbound by his narration that I listen to video again and again.

[@HaramXL]

I highly recommend Frank Muller's reading of Stephen King's "Ballad of the flexible bullet"

[@CassTawwy]

​@HaramXLthank you

[@petermulder7480]

Did Frank Muller the narration for The Graveyard Shift ? KZbin removed some Stephen king audiobooks from the Nightshift collection I wanne hear the graveyard shift again, but I don't know how did the narration.

[@traceythomas3027]

WOW....Stephen King is about the only author who makes me get lost in the reading of his work. Or now...just listening will also do the trick. I listened to the whole thing in one sitting. Couldn't stop. Thank goodness we had dinner early today.

[@chrisprescott2273]

I think Kings short stories are some of his best works as they never out stay their welcome like so much of his novels do. Also I must say the cover art is so simply amazing and perfectly captures the climax of the story.

[@DESBERRY]

mesmerized by this story and the reading of it. Thoroughly enjoyed listening to the point that I put off other tasks just so that I could carry on listening uninterrupted. Many thanks. Much appreciated

[@merlynurena9556]

Hold on.. did frank read this? Omg I love him. He is absolutely amazing.. the true voice of Roland in my eyes.. thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Merry and happy Christmas all!!!!🎉🎉🎉😊

[@janeh1431]

I am so glad I found this channel on KZbin. I've been as Stephen King reader since high school, that's a long time ago 🤭 Also love the narrator, he is very very good. Perfect because winter is coming and that means hot chocolate and a good Stephen King story❤

[@angelabennett8245]

This is one of my favorite Stephen King short story's. I have always been amazed and impressed that he came up with such a great topic. Even now I still leak a few tears. The most beautiful story I have ever read.

[@danielshelton4358]

Best of the seasons, I find it enthralling. I love the Idea of a 'club'.

[@jez6208]

Stephen King can't be bettered with his stories.

[@CombatMosquitoTrainer]

He truly is the king, especially combined with this narrator.

[@ward9306]

But you can bettered toast

[@ЛеонУайт]

Narrator's voice just something else.

[@lemiserable13]

Stephen may go down as the greatest American author of all-time. He's the best I've read anyway. For what that's worth.

[@kevinmckenna7261]

Excellent, Christmas tradition for years. Love it.❤

[@damon4465]

Wow, what a great yarn. So satisfyingly chilling and sorrowful.

[@thinam4]

I tried listening to this in the night but the narration turned eerie around 3am and I had to stop 😊 Great book though. Highly entertaining!

Amazing Story! They say there's a little bit of truth in every Tale and a little bit of a Tale in every Truth.

Right up there with my favorite living narrator, the wonderful Angus King. Angus narrates JD Kirk’s brilliant DCI Logan series. And kudos to actor- narrator Will Patton on recent King audiobooks as well👍

[@crazyduck1254]

[@crystalm4324]

I was a new mother when I read this for the first time…. I cried then. Always fascinated with the club and Stephen any mention in further stories was met with a detective sort of glee. Didn’t get away without tears this time either.

[@elgato9534]

SK has become a modern master.

[@cheritripp9470]

The only 'horror' story wrote in Different Seasons. His agent thought he would be typecast as a horror writer so he wrote the other three stories to show he could do non horror. He did this story to be cute as the final story in the anthology.

[@iscout61kenney10]

what a story! and perfectly read, king is a genius, i enjoyed listening most with speed at 75%. better to savor the imagery. and mastery of language., and be read to sleep if you like, what a story!!

[@englishpoint_gareeva]

I'm glad you liked the story!

[@paolow1299]

Thank you.

[@bleedingroze]

Underrated story overshadowed by the other amazing stories in Different Seasons. Maybe not as movie-worthy, but still an engaging read. I love the “men’s club” framing, and I wish we’d go back to it someday.

[@englishpoint_gareeva]

Thanks for sharing your ideas)

[@spencergregory8049]

Agreed I No worthy of a full length film but definitely an anthology TV series

[@JkwJewish]

These are the best types of SK stories imo. Hearts in Atlantis and N are great too.

[@nickel2442]

The reading is one of the best

[@makararemmington4412]

Dark but very fascinating especially at the end

[@loriwilson-n9t]

The end doesn’t justify all the mundane stuff. I should’ve known.

[@jwsuicides8095]

Thank you for an amazing upload!!

[@Lo51848]

Very enjoyable reading and Stephen King is a major writer. Of course he’s frowned upon by more cerebral authors who look down on popular genre stories as junk but he has such talent as a writer and spins fascinating stories

[@loriwilson-n9t]

Poor victim. Really? I think he gets more respect than is deserved actually. Don’t get it twisted now.

[@TinnyDee]

He's been accused of "over writing" I've noticed the changes of his writing style over the years. I think he's taken the criticism to heart. But personally I love his older works most. I like his little wordy side tangents. 😊

[@thinam4]

​@@TinnyDeefellow Constant Reader perhaps? 😊

[@mwmann]

Narrated by the late great Frank Muller. Stephen King and John Grisham among many others considered him the goat of narrators. He was injured severely in a motorcycle accident in November 2001. He lingered until June 2008 when he died in a hospital in North Carolina I believe. I think it was Duke University hospital ?

[@TinnyDee]

Loved Franks voice, especially in the Dark Tower Series. Noticed there's a big push for multi narrators and the "voice over acting" kind of narration. I don't mind almost any type of narration but being O.G. Frank and his style of reading will always be my favorite.

[@FoursWithin]

​@@TinnyDee Muller is a legend. Theres something special about a single narrator. It has the magic feeling that Grandma or Grandpa is sitting near a cozy fireplace sharing the events of the story first hand just for you. 😍

[@orangeiceice12]

​@@TinnyDeeThe multi narrator is perfect for Wheel of Time, where the girl chapters have a female voice, and the male chapters a male. But for most books, multiplying craftsmen doesnt make better art.

[@HaramXL]

He's left a amazing legacy. May he rest in peace ❤

[@keiththorpe9571]

I've always imagined that, some years later, say after the narrator David Adley's wife had died, and he went on to spend more and more time at the club, a night finally came where David Adley went deeper into the house...and became lost (perhaps encountering some horrible fate...or perhaps going on an adventure). Or, standing at the door with Stevens, Stevens opened the door to that horrific world, thrusting Adley out into it, and trapping him there forever.

[@ladyjenny1746]

I great read. Surprised to see this short story.

[@alexguralnick7697]

A seriously amazing slow burn of a story

[@Former_Employee]

I loved the other three stories of Different Seasons. This one is very hard to get through...

[@GerboaGuzentas]

Anyone else think the fireplace could be an altar or a portal or maybe both? King teasing us with the "hidden rooms" while the biggest clue is in plain sight all along?

[@vonniedemers5683]

One of my favorite stories.

[@supergran2380]

Excellent read.

[@magnuskallas]

It has this Anthology quality to it, right?

[@johnsmith8906]

It features in another King story: "The Man Who Would Not Shake Hands." I hope King writes some more.

[@So-Be-It_890]

Frank Muller narrated for Stephen King's audio books for a long time. I don't know the exacts.

[@Ronald-wv1bz]

First time hearing this and a really excellent reading, though after an hour I became concerned as reader began gasping and gulping for air. I think had you taken a break and rested before reading the next hour, I could of enjoyed the last half much more rather than expecting reader to pass out at any moment.

[@oneproudbrowncoat]

The Maltese Consulate in New York is where the club was located.

[@magnuskallas]

Stephen King sure loves to write. This is one of his creepier stories BUT... I have to say it won't hurt bad if you skip 40% of the beginning...

[@BeautifulEarthJa]

[@spankynater4242]

It's silly when authors frame their stories in such a device. It adds nothing to the story, and it makes me wonder what their rationale is.

[@Mirhaus]

In the authors' defensse, I think in this case it opens up the uncertainty of whether the doctor was just spinning a yarn or had actually experienced the events. It could also open the club up as something to be expanded on in a future story.

[@robertdicarlo4490]

“Advanced English”?!

[@JohannaLeigh]

This story reminds me of John Grisham's *The Firm* . In spots, anyway.

[@sabine4759]

I like the story very much but I don 't like men talking about giving birth to babies! It 's as if a blind man talks about colour! I remember when I gave birth to my daughter , my labour lasted so long that the nurse and doctor were concerned and looked at each other not noticing that I knew what was going on! At least my baby daughter was born with the assistance of a suction bell, nevertheless it was very painful, of course for the baby too! Every birth is different and every woman has to find her own technique or method! In my case "The Breathing Method" wouldn 't have worked!
