The Lost Phoebe by Theodore Dreiser
Story level 2
Audio book with subtitle
The Lost Phoebe is a short story written by Theodore Dreiser. In this
story, it is the wife, Phoebe, who dies first, after their marriage of 48
years. But the story does not start here. Dreiser first introduces the reader
to the couple's equally-old house with the things found therein, heartbreaking
things carrying loads of memories of when they were still both young and when
they still had their children with them (one, a carpet woven by their daughter
at 15, a daughter who had died in her teens).
