Short story audiobook - The Lottery Ticket by Anton Chekhov from collection The Wife and Other Stories translated by Constance Garnett, read by Andrew Macbeth.
is a short story about how greediness can change a person's thoughts and feelings towards loved ones. The idea of winning the lottery changes the married couple Ivan and Masha's attitudes and thoughts in a wrong way. There is no clear setting in this story but we can understand by Ivan's thoughts of travelling countries and he wants a property of his own that they live a poor life and their house is impoverished too.
A woman wins the lottery, rushes home, tells her husband about the win and tells him she's going on a trip and for him to start packing. He says, "Great, should I pack for the beach or the mountains?" "I don't care, just be out of here when I get back next week!"
Seems to be a lot of controlling "armchair captains" in the comment section, getting in their daily doses of lashings toward the narrator for not getting their FREE podcast JUST right! Haha

? What do the following mean, please? Hasn't your ticket lapsed? No, I took the interest on Tuesday. If it is a lottery ticket, how can it lapse and what is the interest mentioned here.
No it’s not just you. Why just the other day I was telling some folks about an experience I had, and then, as I was in mid flow of a particularly entertaining sentence I simply
It sounds like someone reading, though. The best way to read a story is to make it sound like you aren't reading, I think. After all, actors like Al Pacino and Gary Oldman are just reading a script in their movies. Ask yourself why it doesn't sound that way. Now compare how you read to how they do. That's the way to improve.
Don't tell me what to do. And everyone knows it's an audio book, dummy. Don't comment if you are going to be rude and add no value; it's bad from; it's you egotistically playing the parent. Yuck. @@babington4394
Ha. That's irrelevant and the fallacy of false presumption. Your logic sucks. [You know nothing about me. I've read audio books for publication that are online now with thousands of views (under my real name).] It's not about me, though, stupid. Who cares if he's a 'volunteer'? My point still stands, and you are a snark, nasty a-hole, based on your response. The issue is: if you are going to do something, do it right; whether it is reading or commenting. @@eastsidesteve1
That's snarky. I've done plenty of voice-overs and recorded songs as a vocalist on iTunes many times too; don't worry about me, dummy. It's not about me, though. Reread my comment and stay on topic if you can. Your logic sucks. @@eastsidesteve1
@@systemicfakeism Yeah, sure go give this person a bad reputation just because he/she has no interest in the crap school shoved down his/her throat. 79% of people in school are just there because it makes them look good when applying for a job, due to the fact that we learn nothing worth learning apart from the basics. You should really be easier on your students.
