F. Scott Fitzgerald Reads Shakespeare

in Literature | February 7th, 2010 1 Comment

The University of South Carolina hosts a few gems, including F. Scott Fitzgerald (The Great Gatsby) reading lines from Shakespeare’s Othello. Or, more specifically, Othello’s oration to Venetian senators.

You can access the sound file in two formats here (aiff) and here (real audio).

    Thanks for the access to the sound. It’s amazing to think of hearing Fitzgerald’s actual voice.
