Acerca de esta escucha
When Peter Constantine inherited a vast, remote estate, his life began to change. Free at last from money worries, Peter and his wife, Meg, could relax - and Peter could explore his new, mysterious home.
From the thick woods, the winding trails, the bizarre, sensual sculpture, came a pulsing, ancient call that stirred his very soul. Then he heard the music and saw the beautiful woman who beckoned him into the wood...into an ancient ritual, a blood curse, a world of violent, unbridled lust.
Now his wife no longer knows him. Now Peter is transformed...into a pagan creature, driven by the suffocating need of animal desire...until pleasure is not enough, and no evil is forbidden.

Bram Stoker kept secret a tale even more terrifying than Dracula. It begins among the Carpathian peaks, when an intrepid explorer discovers a mysterious golden box. She brings it back with her to the foggy streets of Victorian London, unaware of its dangerous power…or that an evil beyond imagining has already taken root in the city. Stoker, a successful theater manager but frustrated writer, is drawn into a deadly web spun by the wealthy founders of a mission house for the poor. Far from a safe haven, the mission harbors a dark and terrifying secret.

Few authors write with such sheer love of story and language as T. C. Boyle, and that is nowhere more evident than in his inventive, wickedly funny, and always entertaining short stories. Here are 14 new tales previously unpublished in book form. By turns mythic and realistic, farcical and tragic, ironic and moving, Boyle's stories have mapped a wide range of human emotions. The stories here reflect his maturing themes.

Milo Andret is born with an unusual mind. A lonely child growing up in the woods of Northern Michigan in the 1950s, he gives little thought to his own talent. But with his acceptance at UC Berkeley, he realizes the extent - and the risks - of his singular gifts. California in the '70s is a seduction, opening Milo's eyes to the allure of both ambition and indulgence. The research he begins there will make him a legend; the woman he meets there - and the rival he meets alongside her - will haunt him for the rest of his life.

Few authors write with such sheer love of story and language as T. C. Boyle, and that is nowhere more evident than in his inventive, wickedly funny, and always entertaining short stories. Here are 14 new tales previously unpublished in book form. By turns mythic and realistic, farcical and tragic, ironic and moving, Boyle's stories have mapped a wide range of human emotions. The stories here reflect his maturing themes.

Private Demons/Desires?
Not what I expected. Reminded me of that Stanley Kubrick movie with weird sexual fantasies exposed. Just my impression.

Not bad but not what I expected
First, I believe the story itself has potential but it was extremely SLOW. Seemed to take forever before anything interesting happened. The narrator did a fine job with a somewhat boring story. It also feels like many things were left unanswered or not explained that may have helped to move the story along and give it more life. Still, it isn't a bad way to pass time if you need to but I am glad I didn't have to pay for it.

I liked it.
I've enjoyed all the Robert Masello books that I've listened to so far, and really like Paul Boehmer's narration. Though this book was written in the 80s, I liked it as much as The Romanov Cross and The Einstein Prophecy... and almost as much as The Jekyll Revelation.
