Audiobook – Sweet Ermengarde

Sweet Ermengarde is a short story written by H.P. Lovecraft under the pseudonym Percy Simple.  The story:

is a parody of romantic melodrama, centering on Ermengarde Stubbs and her relationships with villainous mortgage-holder ‘Squire Hardman, would-be rescuer Jack Manly and fiance[sic] Algernon Reginald Jones.[1]

I stumbled upon it while searching for public domain gothic horror stories, specifically those witten by H.P. Lovecraft, and those not previously recorded as audiobooks by the contributors at Librivox.org.  Well, it appears that the tireless volunteers at Librovox have recorded all of the public domain stories of Lovecraft’s except for this out-of-character tale.

With my fellow Siloers: fearless sound engineer AJ Mazur and the generous loan of equipment from Dave Fisher. I have made this following recording:

Sweet Ermengarde mp3 (14mb)

or in my prefered format for human voice audio, speex

Sweet Ermengarde speex (3mb (due to superior compression in speex vs mp3))
