- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A Very interesting read that I liked to listen to
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5nicely narrated. always great to see a lesser-known story from such a prolific author presented in such a digestible way!
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5“To be buried while alive is, beyond question, the most terrific of these extremes which has ever fallen to the lot of mere mortality.”Agreed! The narrator of this story relates several examples of people being buried alive, and then tells us of his own experience. The idea itself makes one shudder...
