About this listen

 Stephen Crane's fascinating story "The Blue Hotel" is seen by many as a study of fear. Crane used the stereotypical 1890's American West as his setting, and the story uses a card game to show how fear feeds upon itself. There are both inner fears and fears existing in reality, and the ways that they interact with each other make for a fascinating tale.©1977 Jimcin Recordings (P)1977 Jimcin Recordings Anthologies & Short Stories Fiction Short Stories

Critic Reviews
