Encounters: Stories
Elizabeth Bowen
Read by LibriVox Volunteers
Included in this first collection of stories by noted Irish-British author Elizabeth Bowen are tales of psychological unease, of pent-up emotions simmering until boiling over. Her knack for putting the reader into fully realized worlds of her characters, experiencing the societal anxieties they repress, is unrivaled among 20th century writers. - Summary by Ben Tucker (3 hr 53 min)
