Tonight, we’ll read the short story "The Magic Carpet" from the compilation called "The Day Before Yesterday" by Richard Middleton, published posthumously in 1912. We first read this story back in 2020. Middleton was a tragic figure- a young man impatient for success, who managed to live the archetypal life of the Romantic Bohemian poet, complete with poverty, unrequited love for an impossible woman, and an early, tragic death. No novels were published while he was alive. Soon after his death, the literary world discovered him. Critical acclaim followed for the brilliance of his work, and the brevity of his life. Four volumes of his collected works were published, including this one. If you enjoy this story, and also enjoy mild-mannered ghost stories, be sure to listen to “The Ghost Ship” written by the same author. Just search in your podcast app for “Snoozecast Presents: Spooky Stories”, or go to snoozecast.com/series. But just to reassure our more delicate listeners, this story, “The Magic Carpet”, is in no way spooky. It is about a young boy who uses his imagination to embark on whimsical adventures. — read by 'N' — Sign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to snoozecast.com/plus!
