About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of The Enchanted Typewriter, by John Kendrick Bangs. Read by Cathy Barratt. The Enchanted Typewriter is a collection of short stories by the American author John Kendrick Bangs, written in 1899 in the style that has become known as Bangsian fantasy. Bangs attributes many of the stories to the late (and invisible) James Boswell, who has become an editor for a newspaper in Hades, and who communicates with the author by means of an old typewriter. The fantasy stories in this book are part of the author's Hades series, named for the stories' setting. (Summary by Wikipedia)
