Garrick Hagon
A proposito di questo titolo
This is a story from the More Classic American Short Stories collection.
Here are eight stories from master American writers of the 19th century. They vary from sinister tales by Ambrose Bierce - why is that window boarded up? - and a reflective moment in the life of a woman without children, but forced to look after children, to classic short stories by O. Henry and Stephen Crane. There is even an elegiac description of an eclipse by James Fenimore Cooper, author of The Last of the Mohicans. Read with sensitivity and skill by Garrick Hagon and Liza Ross.

In this short piece, James Fenimore Cooper remembers his experience of a solar eclipse that occurred when he was still a young man. Using this unique event as a starting point, Cooper describes life in his beloved hometown, as well as the different people who lived there and their varying reactions to the eclipse. Narrator Garrick Hagon's full-bodied performance brims with spirit, and his description of the details of town life is both charming and familiar. Hagon tempers his lively narration with a contemplative tone that brings this recollection to a satisfying close.
