"It was the best of times, it was the worst of times..."

Is there, in all literature, an opening line with which more minds are stamped? A passage more famous and quotable than that with which Dickens' timeless classic begins?

I think not!

Set in those two great centers of learning and culture, London and Paris, before and during the French Revolution, A Tale of Two Cities follows the tribulations of Dr. Manette, his blue-eyed daughter, Lucie, and her dashing, strong-willed husband, the expatriate Charles Darnay.

It is, according to every clear-thinking reader, one of Western literature's finest works of historical fiction.

While we all know and repeat the book's opening line, I ask you, do you remember the somewhat lesser-known sentence with which it ends?

"It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to than I have ever known".

Precisely our goal!--A "far, far better rest" awaits you (not the rest of death), if you'll only listen to this episode with me!

If you have a favorite book that you want read in a sleepy style, or if you're the author of an original work to which you'd like to draw more attention, drop me a line at pneuma.finneran@gmail.com. I will read it on this show.
