"The Rocking Horse Winner" D.H. Lawrence

[@TipsysDiary]

Thank you, you just kept me from reading a 13 page paper.

[@drdylonthemadman]

DeQuanForever lolp

[@giasilvermonroe2442]

I know right lol

[@hellbenthornball1153]

You must be real lazy tools if you can't take a few minutes to read a 13-page story.

[@joshuapike2361]

Same

[@Huntorix]

pretty sures its 11

[@cristymcclenny9592]

Thank you so much for your reading! This will help my students who struggle with reading. Great job!

[@LeoJohnEspinosa]

my paper is due in 4 hours and this just helped omfg

[@jeff_r517]

Great story I’ve known and loved for years. And a fantastically appropriate last line!

[@SOUNDsculptures]

I like the bit about deep lines coming into her face at 1:49. That part was particularly poetic for me.

[@rnelson299]

I read a 9 page packet from English 3 times and didn't recall anything from it. Thank you so much. I don't like to do this stuff but this time I needed it.

[@DDINism]

You saved my ass!

[@sorinalopez9731]

I needed to read this and i’m always last minute, such a great help!! Thank you!

[@jasminicore]

thank you so much! I had to read 17 pages and write a two-page essay due tomorrow and you just saved my life!!! good job:)

[@MovieMan101]

Glad I could help!

[@sekirk]

You’re all talking about writing a paper but I’m just here cos I’ve somehow never heard of this short story. Hope you guys passed!

[@Dongfend-05]

I'm also.

[@midnightexpress1711]

thanks! i had a great listen.

[@TheJunkieBox]

Did you do this in one take? Holy shit!! You stumbled a few times but I can't really blame you. I punch in probably every page when I do something like this.

[@MovieMan101]

+TheJunkieBox lol yeah, it was all a single take. Most of the readings (the few that I've uploaded) for my channel aren't professional so much as just a quick, single take to help out anyone who needs to hear the story on the go.

[@chrisruss9861]

@@MovieMan101 I am not studying anything and just listened for enjoyment. It was a good reading. D.H. Lawrence puts a sensitive individual stamp on his stories. I often find more treasures among the short stories of well known writers than their novels, though with Lawrence almost everything is good. James Joyce wrote good straight short stories without the fancy obscure stuff he put into his novels.

[@big-smoovproductions5183]

Thanks for the read. I wanted to revisit the story but I didn’t feel like reading it. 👍

[@HosseinNazari]

I was going to cry at the end🥺😣😣

[@paticio123]

Thank you man! I have a mini test about this short story! You saved me!

[@MovieMan101]

Happy to help!

[@luisdelerme5036]

Thank you for putting the time to helps us I got questions to answer and it help tremendously

[@MovieMan101]

Glad I could help, thanks for listening!

[@Desireamora]

[@Overlemming2737]

Life saver

[@johngiuffrida]

Nice job...and thank you.

[@Lyndanet]

This is one of the most beautiful stories I’ve ever read . It’s so different hearing it

[@sumeshbais2467]

Nice very nice

[@zavor5786]

Now I see through the comment section it's a common ritual for Lit. teachers to present this story to their students. This time around I'm also at the receiving end. Good god, what's with these people and their fascination with tragedy and death?

[@luna7446]

Thank you!!!

[@shawnndixon5254]

i dont have the patience to flip pages. thanks for the audio!

[@animeloverxxl]

Thank you so much

[@MovieMan101]

Thanks for the view, glad I could help!

[@duaaelseed1329]

Thank you very much. It was nicely read.

[@MovieMan101]

Duaa Elseed No problem! Glad I could help.

[@vern9093]

He died?!?

[@outofthegoldfishbowletcete762]

Anonymous duh... yeah

[@dacharlesx]

wow, so is it that the boy was haunted to the point of his last condition ? or ironic to saying "his lucky" but dies

[@MovieMan101]

Irony on one hand... though his condition is almost left up to interpretation. It could also be said that he had a certain attraction towards his mother and when riding the rocking horse suffered from seizures.

[@jadathompson7982]

Thank youuuuu!

[@TheRightPiece]

Well done.

[@MovieMan101]

Thanks! :)

[@sizor3ds]

Thank you so much. I hate reading and I have the first part of my CPT due tomorrow so this helps a lot. I would definitely sub and reccomend your channel if you post more readings of commonly studied short stories

[@ernestkhalimov9368]

bruh 23 pages take like less than an hour to read.

[@Zelmo0n]

@@ernestkhalimov9368 Bro they read this 7 years ago😭

[@vanessamay3689]

Here because of Benjamin McEvoy.

[@mikitea4864]

I know full well yall coming here from ap literature

[@jordanrodriguez4126]

I read this story in high school.

[@dhayneforde7327]

Tyyy

[@sandycharles9689]

Whose voices are in the house?

[@celladora31]

Mastercard and American Express

[@Funz2022]

It's not the younger generation's fault if they don't read, but man, you don't know what you're missing. NOTHING compares with reading real literature in a book, it is a very deep experience. Way deeper than is capable on a computer or iphone. Read lots of strange, good books, it makes this miserable, flimsy life feel much more.

[@laneybarrett5416]

Mick Funz I struggle very much with dyslexia, reading paper books and written letters confuse stories. I am unable to retain the words as they dance around the page. Audio books help me understand and retain the stories. I personally think knowing, learning and understanding the literature is much more important than a physical copy of the text.

[@anushwah]

not everyone can read, mick

[@Evierosa1]

OK BOOMER

[@Gibbinator25]

thank you sir :D

[@beckybarber4083]

wow

[@fabifernandez4704]

Why do the voices get louder after Paul's mom receives the 5,ooo pounds?

[@lisa461]

Fabi Fernandez because she just wants more and more for her own selfish needs

[@matthewwhitefield3438]

Because it’s never enough. The demons need to be fed.

[@ashokjain9078]

Di mere bihot pimples hAi koie night care batao na plzzzzz plz plzz plzzzzz.............

[@outofthegoldfishbowletcete762]

This is a great story. I loved the film too. It was interesting for me to hear it in your nice clear American diction instead of a muffled posh upper class British accent. Lawrence was not upper class anyway so this is more appropriate

[@geniusmchaggis]

the MOVIE "my brother talks to horses" predates "rocking horse winner" by two years..... did lawrence plagiarize here?

[@retrohunter1877]

What why did he die???

[@outofthegoldfishbowletcete762]

RetroHunter 187 he died because his purpose was served. He died because he had a nervous breakdown and lost the will to live. He died of his parents' neglect. He died because he is the only altruistic character in a world full of selfish corrupt adults

[@celladora31]

He had a heart attack.

[@sydneyk5967]

ASMR saliva lol jk but very helpful thanks!

[@MovieMan101]

Twas a night when the Saliva Gods did not offer their assistance lol but I appreciate the watch! Glad I could help!

[@kelman727]

American trying to read Nottingham dialogue. Well...yes.

[@蔬菜王子-k9y]

I love u

[@1405muvA]

How did the boy die

[@celladora31]

Heart gave out

[@Amcayden]

Anyone in AP Lit??

[@stellayates4227]

Whatever happened to reading and experiencing literature for oneself? The whole reason for doing so is that it learn how to understand it for yourself and gain a skill to last you through your life.

[@yanow8318]

How did you get here?

[@nocturnes9108]

WE'RE TERRIBLE READERS BUT VERY GOOD LISTENERS

[@stevecoldsteve]

I like to listen to these for my homework while taking care of other shit on the PC.

[@Limayyy]

I'd say it's much better than not experiencing literature at all.

[@JG-vo3mh]

im trying to be a pharmacist, i doubt i'll have to read novels from the 1800s to my co workers or patients

[@wokebans]

Wtf is a rocking horse 😕
