One Commonplace Day
Pansy
Read by TriciaG





A temperance lecturer misses his train and ends up attending a town picnic. It was a common enough picnic on a commonplace day. But the discussions, actions, and attitudes from that picnic reverberate through the lives of many people. What are the far-reaching consequences of one commonplace day in OUR lives?

Reviews





RWG
The sing song cadence of the reader drives me to distraction. I can't take it
The reader sounds like she is from the midwest. I like her.

One Commonplace Day





Elizabeth Williams
Probably one of the best of Pansy’s books which I’ve listened to so far. Thankfully, any romance is very brief and not at all distracting. I love the scene of the wife and her lost husband in prayer together.

We are God's epistle known and read of all men. In whatsoever we do; do it as unto the Lord.

maddening inflection





A LibriVox Listener
I cannot speak for the text, because the inflection of the reader drove me crazy after five minutes. Does anyone else want to rerecord it?
