Speranza is a small town with a bookshop in it, and until now it only existed on paper. From today you can hear it.
Tales from Speranza is a podcast of slow stories, read aloud for the last hour of the day. Moira keeps the bookshop. Ashwaganda and Toe keep Moira company. People come in out of the rain with something they cannot quite say, and they leave a little lighter.
What is there to listen to
- Welcome to Speranza — a minute and a bit, to see whether the place suits you.
- Why Do Old Books Smell Like Vanilla? — a tired data architect comes in out of a storm and gets an answer he was not expecting.
- The Lost Note of Speranza — a retired piano tuner brings in a record that has stopped meaning anything, and Toe finds what was hidden in its sleeve.
- The Ticket in the Flour Bin — a letter forty years late, and a free ticket to anywhere in Europe.
A new story every week, roughly. Listening is free, and always will be.
If you would rather read than listen, the stories live in the Shop, and the Purring Club is where we keep the quiet corner of the internet going.
