Summary

We all long to find a time when we can escape the daily grind and find a hideaway where we won’t be disturbed. We may have projects to complete or rest to enjoy, but the choice of that location is critical. Algernon Blackwood provides a short story of just such a man who is alone in a cottage on a Canadian island. He should have picked a better location, but then this memorable story wouldn’t exist. Narrated by Glenn Hascall.

Don’t bother

Absolute waste of a credit. Boring. No atmosphere. Just not worth it. Save your credit for something decent
