Ep. 1085, The Dead, Part 1 of 2, by James Joyce
7 november 2025 · 44 min
What sparks fly at a holiday get together in Dublin? Hopefully the good kind…James Joyce, today on The Classic Tales Podcast. Lees meer

Today's story is considered one of the great short stories of English literature. Appearing as the final tale in his short story collection, Dubliners, James Joyce builds the complex atmosphere of a Holiday dance in Dublin.
One thing to look out for is how the point of view of the narrative changes constantly, almost like it's a living thing. The use of phrasing is also noteworthy, sometimes sharp and staccato, and sometimes smooth and flowing. It's as though the language itself has a tempo, texture, and pitch all its own. As though the story were a musical piece in and of itself. Hopefully this becomes even clearer in an audio format. I hope you like it.

The 39 Steps introduces John Buchan's dashing adventurer Richard Hannay, who went on star in four more novels. It's one of the earliest instances of a "man-on-the-run" adventure, now a commonly used trope in action and adventure.
It's been adapted into many films and plays over the years, and was included in BBC's 2003 Big Read poll as one of Britain's "best-loved books".

Today's episode also comprises the first 3 chapters of the book The Insidious Dr. Fu-Manchu. The first of the Fu-Manchu series. It was originally published as The Zayat Kiss in Colliers Magazine in February 1913.
The characters of Nayland Smith, Petrie and Fu Manchu crossed over into the comic world in 1931 in a black and white daily. Nayland Smith made his first appearance in Detective Comics in Detective Comics #17 (DC). Marvel later acquired the rights to the characters, and in the 1970s developed a kung fu television series around the unknown son of Fu Manchu: Shang-Chi. Masters of Kung Fu was cancelled in 1983, and the Rohmer characters haven't been seen at Marvel since, but Shang-Chi has, eventually headlining his own installment into the Marvel Cinematic Universe in 2021: Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.
Let's journey back to where it all began.

We had a great event at FanX last week – we filled the room! People were turned away for lack of seating. This rarely happens. It was such a fun performance, and so fun to be in character and in costume. I had a little front row cheering section, with a bunch of my kids and their significant others who came. It was so neat to see them there.
We have five Fridays this October! Perfect for this incredible classic from the great William Hope Hodgson. First published in 1908, this installment to the genre of classic horror is legendary. H.P. Lovecraft and Terry Pratchett have both praised it at length. It's kind of obvious that it helped them see what could be done, and inspire them to reach for the next level. But oh boy, what a level Mr. Hodgson established. I hope you like it.

In case you haven't noticed, we have now entered into a new phase of the VINTAGE episodes, and I'm really excited about it. The episodes we're revisiting now have not been anthologized, and many have been off the feed and unable to purchase. Be sure not to miss a single Tuesday episode!
Today's story inspired a film starring Charleton Heston called Marabunta. I worked on a movie of the week with the same premise back in 1998. I was the set decorator. I was 23. The movie was so bad, you can't even find it now.

If you're going to the FanX convention in Salt Lake City on Saturday, you can see me twice, if you like. Three other narrators and I will be in a panel on audiobooks. We will also do a live performance of Agatha Christie's short mystery: The Mystery of Marsden Manor. I'll be there not only in person, but in costume as Hercule Poirot, a la the 1982 version of Evil Under the Sun, with Peter Ustinov as Poirot. If you come, please say hi!
You can listen to The Mystery of Marsden Manor and the full collection of Agatha Christie's short stories: Poirot Investigates in the Mystery category at the website at classictalesaudiobooks.com. Or, if you have the Audiobook Library Card, it's in the Mystery category there, as well.

One thing I wanted to mention as our Blackbeard story starts to wind down. When Blackbeard made his last stand, and the author mentions that he wouldn't die, he's not kidding. When Maynard examined Blackbeard's body, he discovered that he was shot in five different places and had been stabbed or otherwise cut twenty times. Just a little gruesome detail for you.
Also, and so I guess this is the second thing, the captains of the ships in this story really existed. Stede Bonnet was a pirate known for his high code of conduct. Lieutenant Maynard was the one who swore to take down Blackbeard, and had a final duel with him. Ned Rackham is likely an embellishment of Calico Jack Rackham, who may have sailed with Blackbeard, but certainly knew him. Feel free to dive down any rabbit holes you need to double check.

Elmer Brown Mason is largely forgotten today, save for aficionados of pulp magazines. His great contribution to the genre of adventure fiction is his five-story series about Wandering Smith. Isaiah Ezekiel, "Wandering" Smith can usually be found at Pere Guerrin's, a rough hang out in New Orleans. His job is to help anyone "who wants to go after something unusual in a strange place".

I was so excited when I found today's story. Ralph Delahaye Paine was a journalist and novelist who flourished in the early 1900s. He attracted the attention of William Randolph Hearst when he covered the Cuban War for Independence from 1895-98. He continued as a war correspondent until 1903, when he retired from journalism and focused on writing history and fiction.
Blackbeard: Buccaneer tells a tale of Edward Teach, the famous pirate known as Blackbeard. Paine uses fictional characters to weave the tale together, but the details around Blackbeard himself are pretty reliable.
