Journey to the Center of the Earth: A Signature Performance by Tim Curry

Featured Listen
Jules Verne's classic science fiction adventure novel Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas, published in 1870, continues to captivate readers with its visionary tale of underwater exploration. The novel's enduring popularity has led to numerous adaptations, with the most famous being Disney's 1954 film starring James Mason as the mysterious Captain Nemo.
Featured Article: The top 100 classics of all time
Before we whipped out our old high school syllabi and dug deep into our libraries to start selecting contenders for this list, we first had to answer the question, "How do we define a classic?" The answer isn’t as straightforward as you might guess, though there’s a lot to be said for the old adage, "You know it when you see it" (or, in this case, hear it). Of course, most critically, each of our picks had to be fabulous in audio. So dust off your aspirational listening list—we have some amazing additions you don’t want to miss.

In this series we listen to short stories that are NOT by perhaps the most well-known author of this type. But the many other rich talents in the volume may have treated the subject matter a little differently, or were perhaps just overlooked in the stampede to applaud the winner.
