Our Presenter for this week is Matt Cox. Let us read what Matt will be playing.
This week on Cruising the Classics we continue the course I began in March on Catherine Ann Porter, a novelist who is better known now then she was when her work was published. Last time we got together we listened to Noon Wine. Now we’re going to listen to two shorter but more powerful works of hers. Both are provided by NBC University Theater and both well dramatized. The first Flowering Judaas is almost all dialogue and is about Laura an American woman working for the Mexican revolution. The second story has lots more action and is about Texas during the great Influenza epidemic of 1918. But deeper then America’s new involvement with the Great War is the romance between a young reporter and a young soldier. There are true moments of suspense and griping tenderness. I’ll see you Thursday both for Flowering Judas and Pale Horse Pale Rider Matt Cox host
