On this CD Dan reads some of his favorite stories from issues of the past few years. Most document the local lore of Long Island’s famous Hamptons, some range as far as New Zealand and Mars. All will remind you of classic American humorists, from Mark Twain to Ambrose Beirce, from Jean Shepard to Garrison Keilor.
You’ll hear about the refugee chickens from Survivor enjoying their last days at Tate King’s North Sea Farms, how an East End whale got buried on Staten Island, why North Dakota is like Shinnecock Hills, the plan for New Zealand’s sheep-gas defense - and much, much more.
Dan Rattiner has a unique take on the world that will grab you. You’ll find yourself returning again and again to Dan Rattiner’s Hampton Fables - each time you’ll leave laughing!
