Sleepy Hollow. The name sends chills down my spine. I never really had an interest in the legend until the new movie. Now I love it. I read this book in the early hours of Thanksgiving morning. Loved it! It's short, descriptive, and exciting all at once. Advice for those who do read it: don't do it late at night like me. You won't be able to sleep!

As with many readers my previous exposure to this story was the Disney Cartoon and the ghoulish adaptation by Johnny Depp, Christina Ricci in the Movie "Sleepy Hollow" [Blu-ray] (1999).
With my purchase of the kindle I was catching up on the classics or sample from different writers. I did not realize this was so short of a story and had to get the images out of my head from the films.
I am amazed had what a good descriptive writing of Washington Irving. I had to set the book down occasionally to look up people and words. Now I ordered information on Hudson and Cotton Mather.
I spent a year near the location of the story at West Point. Now I wonder if there was such a place as Sleepy Hollow.
This is another example of the book being better than the movie. And I look forwarded to reading more of Washington Irving. You will be hooked on him also. In any event it is work the read.
I used the Text-to-Speech function of the book. I intend to purchase a copy form my physical library.

Format:Hörkassette
This entry in the DH Audio "Generations Radio Theater presents Tales By American Masters" radio series is a good version with fine narration by Winifred Philips and a good musical score to accent the story. The only thing I have to complain about is that this is NOT an "Unabridged" reading of the Washington Irving story as advertised on the cassette case; this adaptation has been severely abridged, losing some of the more important elements of the story (such as Ichabod's life as schoolteacher, Brom Bones' history and rivalry with Ichabod, and the events after the night of Ichabod's terror-filled ride). Still, even with the cuts in the text, this tape is worth listening to in the darkness of your room to feel the chills run up your spine!

Dieses Buch und Washington Irving sind leicht diffizil i.a.W. in eine ältere generations Sprache (viel Blumiger) die nicht auf Anhieb verstanden wird.

Washington's classic tale doesn't live up to its reputation
I began reading this book with high hopes. I expected it to be a great book filled with great suspense sequences and rousing dialogue.
Way wrong. Lesen Sie weiter...
