Christianity is a crime.

About 10 minutes in, it got a bit gay for my tastes… I bailed…

Sorry COUZIN - MY Dyslexia GOT me again - me thought it was aboot cybernetics of the Middle Ages ~ LOL

U histeria patient,?

Wesley was midway between Calvin and Arminius believing as he did in Prevenient Grace as necessary to salvation ... he would have had no truc with the Altar call of modern evangelicalism.

What Wesley is saying is true, but he is just repeating the same thing truth over and over in a different way. This is prosperity Gospel. " I will prosper physically because of what God did for ME through Jesus". The message is the salvation of man but more importantly coronation of the King of Glory, the King of the Universe and creation.

Everyone should such an adventure !

Why do I like this?

Bad. Reading.

Hehe.. The whole world turned upside down ... We having it now! And is not a good one!

" the hotel room is a bit grand - it has a bathroom !" How our requirements have changed since 1938 !

Why did Simon hit Charlie and end their friendship??

Excellent! It would take a very special man to live with Getrude😏

I thought Charles Dickens was the greatest . Of course, 1:46 S. M is great❤

Terrible background buzzing and whirring. So disappointing.

One of his best in terms of culture clashings, and the understanding of different lives., the 'haves' and 'have nots' ! So much difference in the sensibilities even within western nations. Absolutely brilliant, enjoyed it very much!

This instantly made me think of The Talented Mr Ripley

P.G brilliance, I ❤ Blandings!

Very salutary tale for our days even though written so long ago

Good play but the woman's voice was to much

he kind of sounds like an older Timothee Chalamet.

Blandings Castle

Wow, what a fascinating video on Voltairine de Cleyre's philosophy of selfishness and metaphysical ethics! As someone who is familiar with her works, I must say this is a fantastic introduction to her ideas. I appreciate how the video captures her important contributions as an anarchist writer and feminist. It's great to see her being recognized for her prolific and insightful thoughts. Keep up the great work!

Did they find the north pole ? Many say there is a mountain there.

Thank you so much for sharing ❤

Just from the title, I hate it. I am so tired of humans destroying nature.

What a wonderful production! it's come to life!

What verbose drivel.

So wonderful to hear a Coward play starring Michael Kitchen my favourite. Thank you so much!!

Thank you ❤

What a great play. I loved Lydia's philosophy of life and how it effected Charlie's life and it's contrast with Simon's philosophy.

They have a get your own oh yeah take a copy of mine

People who listen and read Wodehouse are generally 30 IQ points higher than the average blister

Maugham at his best. His understanding of the “lower” classes and the emotions that flow through them, as opposed to the taughtness of the English upper class is always poignant. The way Charles learns about real life grows slowly, but deeply, yet he is every bit a somewhat naive young English gentleman. The actress who played Lydia is totally brilliant - her normal emotions, her morality, her philosophy come through beautifully. And her voice and accent are marvelous. Thank you so much for posting this play. 🎭🌹 For anyone who found this story boring, you either in a bad mood or have no understanding of the feeling and milieu of the time, which is very evident and problematically ugly. The reasoning of his friend, Simon, is not only scary, but very evident in our time, also. And, it’s not a bit funny!!!! 😐😦

I was born in November of 1940.🎉

This is good! Great portrait of a time & place from the history of my culture I'll never see. Lydia in particular is very well acted. I had no idea Maugham would indicate sexual activity so well and discreetly!

This is one of the scariest ghost stories I've ever read, and it's almost unknown. I think this is the only recording of it on KZfaq. The awful fate of the protagonists has lingered in my mind for years. If there was ever a story that could convince you to get your life straightened out while there's still time, it's this one.

Thank you. Your channel looks most interesting.

Great voice actor

I appreciate that you choose to narrate this excellent, yet forgotten story 🤩💕

I kept waiting to feel something for these characters, but they all seemed like silly people posing. Not sure what I was supposed to come away with. The writing isn’t clever just contrived. Either Maugham hasn’t worn well or perhaps this isn’t a great example of his work. Or maybe as one commenter suggested the acting is not up to par. In any case the overall effect is dreary.

Absolutely wasted by loud ads 😢

❤ WSM, ♥ Mary Wimbush, but….idk if it’s the writing or the acting but this one is not up to par, imo. Ty for the chance to hear this adaptation.

Where is Maugham's first-person narrator? Was this a play or short story?

Liked, subscribed, notifications on. Keep this Sci Fi stuff up. I listen to this stuff for hours, especially because I have insomnia and a lot of time. Lol Seriously, I am a huge vintage Sci Fi fan. Great job.
