In 1956, Caedmon had the great fortune to record Eudora Welty reading five of her finest stories. In her sweetly vibrant Mississippi drawl, Ms. Welty deftly draws the listener in to the uproariously multilayered Why I Live at the P.O., the quiet, richly perceptive A Memory and A Worn Path, the spontaneous Powerhouse and the insightful voice of women's truths in Petrified Man. Ms. Welty's reading brings immediacy and resonance to these wonderful tales. - Container.
