Learn more: http://listen.morningshort.com [http://listen.morningshort.com] Discuss: http://reddit.com/r/morningshort [http://reddit.com/r/morningshort] More Context:This is typical Maupassant.

episode [Friday Fave]: "The Happy Failure" By Herman Melville artwork
[Friday Fave]: "The Happy Failure" By Herman Melville

Today’s episode is:a Friday replay of a wonderful story on success and morality by Herman Melville. This first aired early last year. Melville is best-known for his sea tale "Moby Dick", so it's apt that this short story takes place on a smaller body of water. Learn more: http://listen.morningshort.com [http://listen.morningshort.com] - Discuss: http://reddit.com/r/morningshort [http://reddit.com/r/morningshort] More Context: Melville's character-building dialogue is expert here, as is his suspense-building. Some of the language is a bit racially charged, but bear in mind that this was more normal when this story was written, in the 1850s. Story Genres:American fiction, Dialogue, suspense, drama, humor, Satire, Moralism. Famous books by Mr. Melville * "Moby Dick" * "Bartleby, the Scrivener" And many others. -----What is Morning Short? ------- Morning Short is a podcast and daily newsletter featuring amazing, curated short stories, handpicked for you.

Today’s episode is:A story by George Ade, a classic American humorist.

It also shows how clearly Ade was influenced by the satirical style of his hero, Mark Twain. Ade was one of the first writers to become a millionare through writing. Story Genres:American fiction, Modern humor, Satire, Moralism Famous books by Mr. Ade: * Ade's Fables * Fables in Slang * Knocking the neighbors And many others. -----What is Morning Short? ------- Morning Short is a podcast and daily newsletter featuring amazing, curated short stories, handpicked for you.
