Listen to the last episode:

Benito Cereno by Herman Melville audiobook. On an island off the coast of Chile, Captain Amaso Delano, sailing an American sealer, sees the San Dominick, a Spanish slave ship, in obvious distress. Capt. Delano boards the San Dominick, providing needed supplies, and tries to learn from her aloof and disturbed captain, Benito Cereno, the story of how this ship came to be where she is. Dealing with racism, the slave trade, madness, the tension between representation and reality, and featuring at least one unreliable narrator, Melville's novella has both captivated and frustrated critics for decades. --- Recommended Products --- Wake up to a sunrise and birds chirping with this alarm clock: PHILIPS SmartSleep Great dog treat that cleans teeth: Greenies Dog treat Best spray for cleaning up after pet: Nature's Miracle Dog stain and Odor Remover Favorite spiritual guidance book: The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle Prime shipping is awesome: Amazon Prime Fantastic aviator sunglasses: Serengeti Carrara Our favorite bluetooth speaker: Harman Kardon Studio 8 Our favorite streaming device for tv: NVIDIA Shield Pro For the hammock fans, the skyloft is worth it: ENO Skyloft Hammock - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Learn more about your ad choices.
