Our Mr. Wrenn, the Romantic Adventures of a Gentle Man


Read by Don W. Jenkins

(4.5 stars; 47 reviews)

"At thirty-four Mr. Wrenn was the sales-entry clerk of the Souvenir Company. He was always bending over bills and columns of figures at a desk behind the stock-room. He was a meek little bachelor--a person of inconspicuous blue ready-made suits, and a small unsuccessful mustache." Mr. Wrenn, however has a rich inner life embellished by his own imagination. When he comes into a modest inheritance, he feels he ought to learn to get out and wander a bit, and then his education begins. He finds life more "interesting", perhaps than he had "imagined". . . (Introduction by Don Jenkins) (7 hr 41 min)

Sorry it had to end


(5 stars)

Don Jenkins doesn't have a broadcaster's voice, he has the voice of a friendly neighbor that you grow to be really fond of. He does a wonderful job on the characters, and makes you love our Mr. Wrenn and see the world from his simple and honest point of view. Thanks so much Don!
