One City One Story 2019: Hear it Here!
The Drum presents the 2019 One City One Story selection, "Yvonne," by Ciera Burch, read aloud by Henriette Lazaridis. One City One Story is an annual project of the Boston Book Festival, which prints and distributes 20,000 copies of the selected story for free throughout Greater Boston. You can listen to the story here on The Drum's website, or through our iTunes podcast. Ciera Burch will appear at the Boston Book Festival on October 19 and 20, for town hall discussions with attendees. For more information visit bostonbookfest.org.
Stories from Our Print Journal Partners
The Drum partners with Harvard Review, Ploughshares, AGNI, and Post Road to bring you audio versions of the selected stories from these journals' print editions. Check here regularly for audio recordings performed by local actors. Grab a copy of their newest issues so you can read along while you listen.
Special Projects
From time to time, The Drum publishes special audio literary projects beyond our weekly short fiction and essays. MuseFlash with Grub Street's Muse and the Marketplace conference, Zip-Code Stories with WBUR, Stories on the Street, and recorded live events with the Boston Book Festival and Grub Street are just some of the additional programs you’ll find here.
