  • Anne of Green Gables pt. 28

    Anne of Green Gables pt. 28
    May 9 2025
    Tonight, we’ll read the 28th chapter of “Anne of Green Gables”, the classic 1908 novel by Lucy Maud Montgomery. This chapter is titled “An Unfortunate Lily Maid” In the last episode, Marilla returns home one spring evening thrilled by the season’s promise, only to discover there’s no fire, no tea—and no Anne. After fuming in the kitchen and questioning Matthew, she fetches a candle in Anne’s room and finds her hiding tearfully among the pillows. Anne confesses she spent her chicken-money on a peddler’s hair dye, hoping for raven-black locks but ending up with a ghastly green mane. When daily washings fail, Marilla decrees the only cure is to cut Anne’s hair off, leaving her shingled head looking “like a scarecrow.” In the aftermath, Anne resolves to be good instead of vain, and Marilla—even amid her headaches—admits she rather enjoys Anne’s lively chatter. — read by 'N' — Sign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to snoozecast.com/plus!

  • Litill and Tritill

    Litill and Tritill
    May 7 2025
    Tonight, we’ll read an Icelandic fairy tale called “Litill, Tritill, the Birds, and the Peasant Lad” translated and edited by Mrs. A. W. Hall and published in 1897. Like many folk and fairy tales, the exact origins are complicated and sometimes unclear. The more well-known Crimson Fairy Book edited by Andrew Lang cites this story as having Hungarian origin. However, there are at least two earlier publications that are specifically Icelandic compilations that include this story. Iceland has a rich tradition of storytelling, with folktales passed down through oral tradition for centuries before being committed to print. Stories often traveled across borders and were reshaped by local customs, so it’s not surprising to find the same tale appearing in different collections with varied national attributions. What remains consistent in this version is its distinctly Icelandic sensibility—featuring a humble protagonist, mysterious helpers, and a clever unraveling of magical obstacles, all set against the stark yet enchanted landscapes typical of Northern European lore. — read by 'N' — Sign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to snoozecast.com/plus!

For me, an adjustment period was necessary for oratory style but I’m now asleep just a few minutes into a reading. However, I do find the intros bothersome. They’re awfully loud (and lengthy) for this kind of podcast. On occasion I’ve been startled out of a lovely visit to Sleepytown. Overall, I’m pleased to have this as part of my sleep aid arsenal.

Relaxing until it's NOT.
