About the work

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

LibriVox recording of The House of Moonlight by August Derleth. Read in English by Ben Tucker As a boy living in Sac Prairie, Wisconsin, with his grandfather Jasper, Steve goes to visit up-and-coming pianist Joel Merrihew and his mother. But what he finds in Joel is a troubled and broken man, struggling with an inner turmoil whose soul is as restless and conflicted as the dense and complex Symphony in D Minor by Franck of which Joel is so fixated.
