The Mystery
Paul Laurence Dunbar
Read by LibriVox Volunteers
LibriVox volunteers bring you 22 recordings of The Mystery by Paul Laurence Dunbar. This was the Weekly Poetry project for August 12, 2012,
Paul Laurence Dunbar was an African-American poet, novelist, and playwright of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Much of his popular work in his lifetime used a Negro dialect, which helped him become one of the first nationally-accepted African-American writers. Much of his writing, however, does not use dialect; these more traditional poems have become of greater interest to scholars. (Summary by Wikipedia) (0 hr 34 min)

Reviews
Interesting Approach
Frank Bowden
It is quite interesting to hear so many different readers read the same poem. Each reading seems to give you a different perspective on the poem. I enjoyed it.
