- Classic tale from the master of the genre.
"The Choice of Amyntas" tells the story of Peter the Schoolmaster, who names his firstborn son Amyntas despite his wife's objections. Amyntas grows up under his father's strict educational regimen, learning many classical languages and texts. At eighteen, Amyntas is sent out into the world with only a guinea and some books, leading him to various adventures, including being duped by a Spanish lady and seeking work in Cadiz.

Thank you. I am so enjoying your uploads of several brilliant writers and stories.
I am mesmerized by the illustration, AI and all….
the narration and illustration are AI, next step is AI-written "Somerset Maugham" stories!
I too!!!!! I studied Illustration during the 60s. I met so fantastic Illustrators!! Beautiful art and music choices. VO /AI not, Mesmerizing and TRANSPORTING. .
Somerset Maughan really loved having a blue eyed character.
Twinkling blue eyes.
“Once upon a time very long ago when the world was younger and more wicked than it is now…” A perfectly enchanting beginning!
Princess. Anne is lovely 💕
What a story? So exciting and so different so black and so bright.
Thank you 🙏
I still remember the queen's jubilee all if them❤
He was the only one who had a nanny😂
Can’t say that I enjoyed this allegory.… much prefer SM’s’ anecdotal stories.
Who in there right mind would not live at frogmore 🐸 cottage 🕵️🌟
A Faurytale, indeed.
The queen's sisters last born 🙏🇬🇧🙌💯😎
Beautiful song too! Who sings it and what is it called?
i take issue with the statement @ 1:43 ,.
for the currant world in which we live is in-deed FAR MORE WICKED than it was at anytime during those far off days long ago. take me back to the pre-electric days of horse and cart anytime, and you know where your iphone can go.!!. WOAH.!!.. steady boy.. giddy up.. clipidy clop.. ho ho ho...
Edward was the favourite❤❤
No he wasn't, Andrew was the Queens favourite supposedly,
🙏🙏🙏🙏👏💕
I would love to call Charles out😂😎✋
Edward looks like my uncle 🤣 for sure
I can't decide if this is a retelling of the Odyssey or of the prodigal son.
Oh but the prodigal one left of his own accord with conceit in his heart.
It's complicated 😁
These S Maughan short stories are so addictive. I so like this particular narrator as well. Who is he please. Art work and music add to the enjoyment. Downside is that I am sure last week there was only one introductory advertisement, now there are numerous so you need to have your device at hand to deal with them. Thank you neuralsurfer. Carol
How the other half live for now😂😂
Charles crowned himself and Camilla 🙈🙈
Peter ain't that Princess Annes son🕵️🌻
The queen and Charles 🤫 he was never the favourite 🙄🤣

The queen daddy was king cos of Berti and mrs Simpson Albert had to Abdicate cos of adultery ehhh 🤔 so why does Charles think hes different queen victoria never got over it 💥👁️👌
I think you mean he had to abdicate because of marrying a divorced woman, and his mother Queen Mary never got over it, Victoria was long gone by his time
