MP3 Audio CD. The Paying Guest (version 2 dramatic reading) CHAPTER I It was Mumford who saw the advertisement and made the suggestion. His wife gave him a startled look. 'But--you don't mean that it's necessary? Have we been extrav--' 'No, no! Nothing of the kind. It just occurred to me that some such arrangement might be pleasant for you. You must feel lonely, now and then, during the day, and as we have plenty of room--' Emmeline took the matter seriously, but, being a young woman of some discretion, did not voice all her thoughts. The rent was heavy: so was the cost of Clarence's season-ticket. Against this they had set the advantage of the fine air of Sutton, so good for the child and for the mother, both vastly better in health since they quitted London. Moreover, the remoteness of their friends favoured economy; they could easily decline invitations, and need not often issue them. They had a valid excuse for avoiding public entertainments--an expense so often imposed by mere fashion. The… Read More

Description:
MP3 Audio CD. A genre of both satire and romance are embodied in The Paying Guest by an English Novelist, George Robert Gissing, also a teacher and a tutor. The Paying Guest is one of his 23 novels, appreciated by many, though the author was not happy with his work. A middle-class family, Clarence and Emmeline Mumford and their son living in London, came across the newspaper, and read about a young lady searching for a place to stay as a paying guest or lodger. Delighted to have more income, they adhered to the advertisement and meet the paying guest, whose name is Louise Derrick. Louise needed a place to stay for the moment because of some family misunderstanding. The paying guest is not well-educated, irritable, and irate. Louise has two suitors: Mr. Bowling, who is pursuing Cecily, the stepsister of Louise, but Cecily just ignored him, and Tom Cobb.
