George Sand 1 hr 55 min read

Three loaves, an apparition, and a water-spirit haunt a lyrical ghost story from the French of George Sand, translated for those who could not read it in the original.

George Sand's tale (this 1892 English translation, 'The Naiad') is an atmospheric fantasy and ghost story. Lyrical, tender, evocative. Read it for a graceful supernatural story from a giant of French letters, a haunting of water-sprites and apparitions, rendered into English as a labor of love and memorial.
