About this listen

On a remote stretch of the Danube, two travelers set out on what should be a simple canoeing journey. But as the river carries them deeper into uncharted wilderness, the world around them begins to shift—vast, unsettling, and alive in ways that defy reason.

Algernon Blackwood’s The Willows is widely hailed as one of the greatest works of supernatural fiction ever written. Blending breathtaking descriptions of nature with an atmosphere of mounting unease, Blackwood creates a tale where the boundary between the real and the unknown grows dangerously thin.

For listeners who love cosmic horror, uncanny landscapes, and timeless classics of the weird tale, this novella remains a haunting masterpiece that lingers long after you finish listening.
