THE FIVE JARS

Montague Rhodes James (1862-1936) is recognized as one of the greatest writer of ghost stories in the English language, as well as being a noted medievalist scholar.  He wrote one children's book, a tale of magic and talking animals, of fairies and gnomes, and of man's desires for forbidden things.  For those used to the quiet and growing uneasiness of the author's' ghost stories, The Five Jars presents a different M. R. James -- one I hope you will appreciate.

The story is read by Peter Yearsley.

Enjoy.
