Welcome back to Literary Lullabies. Tonight, we are listening to the classic retelling of "A Winter's Tale" as adapted by Charles and Mary Lamb.

In this reading of "A Winter's Tale," listeners are taken on a journey through Shakespeare's captivating tale of love, jealousy, and redemption. The story unfolds in two contrasting settings: the harshness of a cold kingdom and the warmth of a pastoral haven. Central to the plot are King Leontes, whose unfounded jealousy leads to tragedy, and the enduring love of his wife, Hermione. With rich language and emotional depth, the reading highlights themes of transformation and the power of forgiveness.
