Sometimes 4: The Masque of the Red Death

Edgar Allen Poe's classic story is the latest piece of classic literature to find its way into Mike Bennett Sometimes. If you're not familiar with the show but are a lover of Poe, to download this free audio mp3 file, click here:

Sometimes 4: The Masque of the Red Death


This will take you direct to the mp3 which you can listen to live or download by clicking 'save' in your browser menu. You'll hear the reader, me, wittering on for a bit, then the story starts after about 7 minutes.

If you're not (strictly) a Poe fan, but a person who enjoys my podcasts, the whole process needs no introduction.

Music comes from A Band Called Quinn.

I hope you enjoy it.

Hey EFL Teachers!
Sign up with One Among the Sleepless, the free downloadable audio novel that you can use in class with your students as a great source of authentic spoken English. It's also the perfect entertainment solution for all you EFL teachers out in far-flung parts of the world with no English TV, radio or bookstores: a free contemporary fiction novel, read by the author, downloadable in weekly episodes.
Below is the text extract, 'Mick's Chopper'. There you have it: why it's almost a lesson plan in itself - the written text for you to cut and paste, and me, the author, reading the text in Episode 6. Go get it! And be sure and set some interesting questions. (And if you do, please email and let me know - I could use them myself).
