Anton Chekhov wrote three interconnected short stories, sometimes referred to as "THE LITTLE TRILOGY." The three tales , "The Man In a Case," "Gooseberries," and "About Love," have been continually admired and read for more than a hundred years as individual stories. When read/listened to together, they reveal interrelated, reoccurring characters and themes. The three stories, recorded here in public performance, are available in two audiobook formats as well as three separate story episodes. Total audiobook length: 1 hour 32 minutes. Anton Chekhov - The Little Trilogy [Unabridged]
Originally published in French in 1922 and later translated by Paul C. Blum, this biography of Buddha is told in an unassuming and engaging style. The public domain text strings together the narrative of Buddha's life as gathered from several classic Buddhist texts, including the Buddhacharita of Asvaghosa, the Lalitavistara, and the Jataka, tales of the Buddha's former births. Here is the story of Prince Siddhartha. Although born into luxury, he seeks and finds enlightenment. He goes on to a life of teaching and developing a growing community. The biography ends with the Buddha's Parinirvana. The text of this English translation is made available through the generosity of The Internet Sacred Text Archive at sacred-texts.com. This on-going podcast of the 58 chapters of The Life of Buddha will be available until all chapters are recorded. Afterwards, the completed audiobook will be available in a commercial edition. This audiobook is a Cloud Mountain production. The complete length of the current episodes is 3 hours and 05 minutes. * * * * * PLEASE NOTE: although not free of textual errors or outdated interpretations of the Buddha's life and teaching, its relaxed, conversational style makes The Life of Buddha an inspiring introduction to the extraordinary man called the Buddha. Please read more recent, reliable works to gather accurate knowledge of the Buddha's words and actions. * * * * *
