A Temple of the Holy Ghost 

Dude, you deserve an academy award for this reading. It gave even more life to a perfect story.

So hard to read FO'C correctly, but you did it. Thank you.

I want to thank you for this video! :) I have dyslexia and needed to read this story for an English paper. I read it throw once on my own but wanted to hear it read to me so I could understand better. I will be listening to this video over and over the next three or four days. :) Once again, thank you SOOO MUCH! ^^

THAT, Mr. Cole Webb Harter is one of THE best readings I have ever heard. Your reading voice was perfect for each character and your singing voice is beautiful. Flannery O'Connor is not easy to read aloud. You absolutely nailed this story. I could picture all of it so clearly. I was also soothed by your wonderful voice. Librivox needs you badly. I know the readers are volunteers, but, there are some that ruin a good story. Honestly, I am still hearing your voice reading and singing. I agree with Karen Brittens comment below. PLEASE, if you can manage it, I would love to hear more of anything you choose to read. Truly, you have something very special. You could make the phone book sound interesting. Thumbs WAY up and subscribed. Thank you so very, very much - Beautiful job.

B E A UTIFUL VOICE ... Wow. Thank you for your performance and singing.

Thank you Cole, truly her story came alive in your reading.

Mighty fine! Good work with one of O'Connor's best stories.

Just...wow. incredibly well done. What a gift. And the singing... thank you. Im a big fan.

What a beautiful story and a beautiful reading of it!

Thank you so much for this! I truly appreciate it!

Well that dear sir, was stupendous. Round of applause all the way back to Andalusia. 😊

This is excellent. Thank you, Cole.

Wonderful.

Oh, and PLEAS make more videos! ^^ I'm Catholic too, if you didn't figure that out already by my name. XD Haha!

The "freak" actually did have two heads.

I would love it if you would read some more stories by Flannery or other authors like Shirley Jackson or maybe even Eudora Welty. I love the way you narrate, you've got a very pleasant voice!

This was a very well done reading!

I've never had the pleasure of reading this story. I really enjoyed it!

Anyone understand the plot? Seems like I missed something. So the Freak show came and went and they all thought we're freaky sometimes and that's ok, is this the plot?

I suspect this is another story from Flannery O’Conner’s childhood. There is another story where she named a chicken Jesus to the dismay of her mother. Definitely the same child and I know the chicken story is true from a biography I read about her. She is a profound writer and the reader did a good job. That’s not the tune to the tantrum Ergo but it was a great improvisation.

Okay with the pipes 😊, I see you sir 😉 10:51

Flannery O'Connor. Often times, She saves my life.
