About this listen

When a disreputable trader is killed in broad daylight at the county fair, it is quickly declared an accident—but Abner knows something more lies beneath.

After the story, distinguished Romani scholar Dr. Ian Hancock, shines a light on “Gypsy” stereotypes in literature and film, and talks about the realities of Romani cultural experience.

This audio production contains the full text of Melville Davisson Post's story, "An Act of God" from the collection Uncle Abner: Master of Mysteries. A copy of the book can be obtained from West Virginia University Press.
