    Oh god, finally someone who knows how to read epic poetry. Most other people just read it as bloody prose with no care to meter.

    Thank you so very much! Oh yes, of course, I will finish the project. It will be done in February. I've completed 10 books. I have several overlapping series and I keep them overlapping because I don’t want to limit the scope of the channel which has always meant to be wide-ranging in its readings... and accessible to all viewers - the lovers of audiobooks and shorter formats alike. I did this with Ulysses and Swann's Way, as well i.e. posting short stories, poems, essays, and speeches in-between installments of the audiobooks. I only abandoned one audiobook, The Seawolf. I stopped recording The Seawolf for personal reasons. The gentleman who requested it was getting a bit too...shall we say... involved with my readings of them. Much as I appreciate the enthusiasm of ardent viewers, there are lines that shouldn't be crossed and I'm afraid that particular viewer tried to obliterate them. Such are the occupational hazards of internet posting;) Here is the playlist thus far kzread.info/head/PL7Wr1VPtVzqVvMEpCgtwTcCQS-aCpak0x Cheers!

    This Metamorphosis Reading reminded me that I recently had a dream I was with a little young lady who was made of feathers like a bird. We never spoke. She was innocent sad and shy and homely, like an ugly duckling. I felt sorry for her and began cuddling her. Her feathered skin was brittle. Does anybody have any ideas about the meaning of this dream?

    Dream symbols are often about our inner selves. Perhaps you have a vulnerable part of you that you would like to protect and comfort. Do you feel that you were picked on by someone, recently or long ago ? Feathers and birds might symbolize the ability to fly, freedom, and rising above something, or seeing something from a higher perspective.

    Investigate the book, you will see its anything but average. I own a copy more than 100 years old and to this day - still the greatest book ever written (my opinion of course). Plus I found out years later, that the real life main character - Wolf Larsen, was born and raised on the same Island as me. Cape Breton Island East Canada. I appreciate it,very much so...that you will read this. Can I ask a quick question...where you are from?

    Not really “satanic” I believe. It was just from a time when people believed that there were multiple gods that created the cosmos instead of just one, because that is what their literature taught them.

    No. Ovid was a Roman poet and The Metamorphoses is one of his greatest series of poetry. It's not satanic by any stretch of the imagination. As for polytheistic people in general, we worship many gods because we believe there are many gods. Not just because someone shoved a bible in our lap and force fed us monotheism. Christians need to open their eyes to this truth.

    How would you ever think this is Satanic? It's entirely exterior to the Abrahamic tradition and can't be connected to it from a theological sense. You can find influences and similarities through comparative philosophy/literature/theology, but to say it's Satanic is absurd
