I read bedtime stories softly and make my own audiobooks to help you relax and fall asleep, or just to enjoy the story read by me! The best place to listen is through the Patreon version which supports me and the podcast, but I make these free episodes to help people who can't afford it. Sometimes episodes have relaxing sounds in the background like rain, thunder, fire, and other ambience. I read classic tales as bedtime stories with a side of unintentional softly spoken ASMR.

Hello there, and welcome to tonight's episode of Down to Sleep. This is a podcast of softly spoken

0:06.6

stories to help you get a good night's rest on tonight's episode, The Picture of Dorian Gray by

0:12.9

Oscar Wilde. And this is part one of the complete audiobook. I first started reading this book

0:18.9

nearly a year and a half ago back at episode two of this

0:22.1

podcast. So if it sounds slightly different to the more recent episodes, that is why I think my

0:26.8

reading style has slowed down a lot since, and you'll probably hear it slow down through the

1:30.3

divan of Persian saddlebags on which he was lying, smoking, as was his custom, innumerable

1:36.4

cigarettes. Lord Henry Watton could just catch the gleam of the honey-sweet and honey-colored

1:43.4

blossoms of a laburnum,

1:45.2

whose tremulous branches seemed hardly able to bear the burden of a beauty so flam-like as theirs.

1:51.5

And now and then, the fantastic shadows of birds in flight flitted across the long-to-saw silk curtains
