Join us this fall for our Friday podcasts as Dr. Esolen continues to read all of Mark Twain’s Huckleberry Finn aloud, chapter by chapter.

In today’s reading we continue with those swindlers and scoundrels, the “Duke” and the “Dauphin” — with Shakespeare, a bit, well, garbled, and a real circus, and a “lynching bee” that didn’t come off, all in a pig-swallow village fairly tipping into the Mississippi!

Poetry Aloud
Poetry Aloud will help you learn how to read poetry with your ears. Unlike children with bad table manners, poetry is meant to be heard and not just seen. Join Anthony Esolen every other week (or so) as he introduces and discusses a longish poem and then reads it aloud.
