AV:Audio CD recommendation for MS or HS libraries

[Deborah Hall <deborahh@TENET.EDU>]

I recently read a review for an audio CD that sounded interesting in the
"Houston Post". The title is "Closed on account of Rabies"- a collection of
poems and short stories by Edgar Allan Poe. I found the CD online at
www.cdnow.com .  The readers were performers like Christopher Walken,
Marianne Faithful, and Iggy Pop. I previewed it with my 16 year-old son who
declared it a hit when it arrived within 4 days of ordering it online. I
promptly took it to school and  promoted it in our daily bulletin. "Closed
on account of Rabies" has attracted  a lot of interest from the teachers. I
have even had a student request for it after the word got out. It has 2
cd's and contains all-time hits like "The Raven", "Tell-tale Heart", "The
Masque of the Red Death", "The Black Cat", and others.  It is well-done and
fits into the curriculm  nicely. Consider adding it to your collection. If
you are wondering about the title, apparently evidence now points that Poe
died of rabies.
