Coleridges masterpiece about a sailor who offends nature by killing a seabird takes the listener on a macabre odyssey that includes brushes with sea monsters, a ship manned by zombies, and a game of dice with Death. The poem has retained its hypnotic power and beauty for over two centuries. This is the definitive reading of the classic 19th-century narrative poem by James Mason, whose voice will be remembered by millions (Bill Fairchild). Also included is a bonus piece, Lewis Carrolls The Hunting of the Snark, read by Roy Dotrice.
