About this listen

How long would you walk, if the Devil sauntered up to you of an evening, and journeyed alongside of you? Young Goodman Brown is led by the Devil to a midnight ritual, where fire, blood, and water change his opinions of the nature of humanity.

Enjoyable

Martha Carrier is my great-something Grandmother. She was killed in the Salem trials. The insanity of dream, the insanity of judgmental fear is put across forcefully in this short, painfully accurate story.

Sad and True

This was a classic story I was not familiar with. The devil entices a man on a journey. The man must determine whether the people he knows are who they seem or something different. Brilliantly narrated by the wonderful BJ Harrison.

Reading this took me back to my childhood, and one of the very first stories that open my mind to the possibilities of a great imagination. Such a great tale of mystery and horror set in a Puritan society. Was it a dream?

I bought this because of the exceedingly cheap price, but this turned out to be one of the best audio books I have listened to in a long time. Perfectly narrated, and a great story.

Perfect

It seems full of text with deeper meaning, maybe religious context? It’s an interesting read but without context I feel I can’t appreciate the story the way the author wanted his work to be.

I have no idea what I read

If you find yourself either wanting to read Young Goodman Brown or like me, have to read it for an English class, this is a good way to fully understand the story.

I find listening to classics like this a bit easier than just trying to read the words on the page as sometimes there's so much expose that the scene starts to get a bit muddy. For me, listening to it is better than trying to read it.

A classic
