About Life and Adventures of Jack Engle- An AutoBiography

For more than 160 years, Walt Whitmans novel Life and Adventures of Jack Engle, was lost in the shadows of history, overlooked and forgotten. Its existence was only hinted at in the scattered notes of Whitmans works studied by graduate student Zachary Turpin. The characters Covert, Wigglesworth, Smytthe, and Jack Engle were present, but no completed work with them had ever been discovered. After exhaustive research and countless hours scanning old newspaper pages, Turpin stumbled upon an advertisement for an upcoming serial that matched his notes. With this discovery, a hidden gem of literature was unearthed. Life and Adventures of Jack Engle is a captivating first-person narrative told by Jack Engle, reminiscent of a Dickensian tale set against the backdrop of New York City. It spins a rich tapestry of rags-to-riches success, vibrant characters, and insightful social commentary. Listen to experience a treasure trove of 19th-century life and morals, as seen through the eyes of Jack Engle. (Narrated by Margaret Espaillat)

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
