More About the Story:
WhoAm asks whether Flannery O’Connor can be expected soon. Now, I’d thought of saving O’Connor for a while, for obvious (or perhaps not-so-much-so) reasons: the desire to wait until my face gets older and wrinkles become a more permanent part of its own social fabric, or maybe I’ve wanted to save her for the debut of the sequel to Miette’s Bedtime Story Podcast.
But it has been asked, and as you well know, I’m either more than happy to comply with requests, or a peerless sucker. Go ahead and ask me to read the next one standing on my head.

If you’re still taking requests…”The Lord Chandos Letter,” by Hugo von Hofmannsthal.
(The Kleist-like “Incident in the Life of Marshall de Bassompierre” is also fantastic.)
