Questions About This Episode

What is A Quicksilver Cassandra - Unpleasant Dreams 70 about?

This week on Unpleasant Dreams, Cassandra Harold takes us on a journey through the whimsical and thought-provoking short story, "A Quicksilver Cassandra" by John Kendrick Bangs. Known for his wit and satire, Bangs weaves a tale that blends fantasy with a touch of the absurd, much like the prophetess Cassandra (not our Cassandra!) herself—gifted with the power of prophecy but cursed to have no one believe her. "A Quicksilver Cassandra" was first published in 1894 and is in the public domain. It was a part of Bangs' short story collection "The Water Ghost & Others." If you enjoy the show, share it with friends or anyone who enjoys a good blend of literature and musings from Cassandra. -- Jim Harold Media LLC respects writers' intellectual property.
