 "The Hostile Hospital"
by Lemony Snicket - unabridged
audiobook (books on tape or CDs). Read by the Tim Curry.
"A Series of Unfortunate
Events" contains a total of 11 stories presented in a a
tongue in cheek way and is intended for older children (middle
school, about 10 years old) and a wry sense of humor. Here is
the description from the back of audiobook No 8, "The Hostile
Hospital."
"Dear Listener,
Before you throw this awful
audio to the ground and run as far away from it as possible,
you should probably know why. This audio is the only one which
describes every last detail of the Baudelair children's miserable
stay at Heimlich Hospital, which makes it one of the most dreadful
audios in the world.
There are many pleasant
things to listen to, but this audio contains not one of them.
Within it are such burdensome details as a suspcious shopkeeper,
unnecessary surgery, an intercom system, anesthesia, heart-shaped
balloons, and some very startling news about a fire. Clearly
you do not want to hear about such things.
I have sworn to research
this story, and to record it as best I can, so I should know
that this audio is something best left on the ground, where you
undoubtedly found it.
With all due respect,
Lemony Snicket"
