An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge: By Ambrose Bierce - Illustrated | Ambrose Ambrose Bierce
6 posts | 28 read | 7 to read
How is this book unique? Font adjustments & biography included Unabridged (100% Original content) Formatted for e-reader Illustrated About An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge by Ambrose Bierce "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge" or "A Dead Man's Dream" is a short story by American author Ambrose Bierce. Originally published by The San Francisco Examiner in 1890, it was first collected in Bierce's 1891 book Tales of Soldiers and Civilians. The story, which is set during the Civil War, is famous for its irregular time sequence and twist ending. Bierce's abandonment of strict linear narration in favor of the internal mind of the protagonist is considered an early example of experimentation with stream of consciousness. It is Bierce's most anthologized story.

The short story is phenomenal; so is the French movie where no words are necessary. It is the only Twilight Zone episode not written/narrated by Rod Serling. Click here if you'd like to view it: https://vimeo.com/15147706

Another from the ‘Penguin 60s‘ collection - this one was a little bit weird!

Susanita We used to watch the movie every year in middle school/high school. Even when I knew what was coming, I always thought it would turn out different. 5y

Another great, short #serialreader finished up today. I read The Death of Halpin Frayser before and really enjoyed Bierce‘s style. This one was also very good. A bit morbid, but good.

This was interesting enough, but it felt a bit long winded, especially given the twist at the ending. I can see why it would be seen as a classic, but I didn't exactly fall in love.

Honestly, if not for @SerialReader forcing me to pace it, I could've finished the story in ten or so minutes. So descriptive and that ending, damn!

Anyone else use this app? I just found it and I dig it!
