Part of Maugham's great collection of short stories.

What a lovely story seen and felt through the eyes of a person of a younger generation. Captain Meadows never lost his sense of humour, walked the distance chalked out for him by destiny, completed his journey and went in peace from his parental home. Many thanks for sharing with people like us who are hooked line sinker and all!

I am taken with the Excellent illustrations. Can you tell us more about them? Thank you.

For the past year and a half I have trained using the latest tools in midjourney and other systems to create images that correlate with the themes of the stories. I did this originally for my students with visual problems so they could have access to audiobooks that were free and I then augmented them with visual images for other students as well....

An excellent story of regretting - or not regretting - one's life choices. (IMHO)

I find this such a poignant story. I think he knew what was going to happen to him and that was why he came back.

I would agree with you, a lot of people do know when they’re going to die. 😊

I think many of us can identify with Mrs. Meadows: what if?.. …. reminds me of Robert Frost’s THE ROAD, NOT TAKEN…

Yes, the creator of the videos states that they are augmented AI. Sometimes it's hard to notice, but if you listen to these stories, you'll hear many odd pronunciations, and words with incorrect emphasis. EDIT: Following through a little, I see they use a program that clones real human voices, and this is the result. And the artwork is also AI !
