It's the early nineteenth century, and the moon is bright, the Hudson Valley forests are full of shadows, and a lonely schoolteacher heads home on his rickety horse. All those stories he's heard about a headless horseman are just stuff and nonsense...aren't they? In this episode, Jacke continues his look at early American writer Washington Irving (1783-1859) with a reading of Irving's classic 1820 Halloween story, "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow." PLUS a look at Emily Dickinson's Poem #236 ("Some - keep the Sabbath - going to church - ") Help support the show at patreon.com/literature or historyofliterature.com/donate.
