HOLYDAYS HOMEWORK SUGGESTION

Hello dear students,

As part of our “ear training” or listening exercises, I propose you the following audiobook for the holydays:  Told After Super, by Jerome K Jerome.

I have chosen it because it's only over one hour long, it's read in British English, at a slow pace and is fully subtitled, so you will have no problem with vocabulary doubts.  

Jerome Klapka Jerome (2 May 1859 – 14 June 1927) was an English writer and humourist, best known for the comic travelogue.  WIKI

About Told After Super,  LibriVox remarks:

“It is Christmas Eve, and the narrator, his uncle and sundry other local characters are sitting round the fire drinking copious quantities of whisky punch and telling ghost stories until bedtime, when...

But no, I won't spoil the fun. This is a little gem: Jerome at his tongue-in-cheek best. (Summary by Ruth Golding)

Genre(s): Horror & Supernatural Fiction, Humorous Fiction
Language: English”

It has been a pleasure working with you this couple of months, and I look forward to continue in 2015.  Have a very happy season and wonderful holydays.


Astrid Arroyave.
