Mark will read Franz Schubert’s Erlkönig. The Erlkönig, besides being a poem by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, is depicted in German poems and ballads as a malevolent creature that haunts forests and carries off travelers to their deaths. Wes’ presentation will feature, but briefly, the overly complex and overwrought prose of Edward Bulwer Lytton - the originator of the opening line "It was a dark and stormy night..." This Victorian man of letters was once nearly as popular as Dickens, but now is widely parodied by many, and especially by the annual Bulwer-Lytton Fiction Contest.
