Eothen in your own voice
Philosophy / Non-FictionLong readabout 10 hours to listenAdult
A young Victorian rides through the Ottoman East — Constantinople, the Syrian desert, plague-stricken Cairo — with dry, irreverent wit; short, stylish, and self-mocking. Record a short sample of your voice and Voiceami narrates the whole of Eothen in it.

How it begins
At Semlin I still was encompassed by the scenes and the sounds of familiar life; the din of a busy world still vexed and cheered me; the unveiled faces of women still shone in the light of day. Yet, whenever I chose to look southward, I saw the Ottoman’s fortress—austere, and darkly impending high over the vale of the Danube—historic Belgrade.
