Hanging from the gallows is a fresh corpse, and underneath the dangling wretch a young woman performs a haunting dance. When Ambrosius falls in love with this outcast woman, his efforts to suppress his natural feelings result in a gradual descent toward calamity and tragedy.&nbsp; Bierce’s subtle transformation of the monk Ambrosius from innocent monk to violent zealot is masterfully done, ranking this among Bierce’s finest achievements.</p><p style="margin: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: normal; font-family: Palatino;"><br /></p><p style="margin: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: normal; font-family: Palatino;"><i>Running Time: 2 hours, 50 minutes</i></p><br /><br />Visit <a href="https://store.classictalesaudiobooks.com/ambrose-bierce-c59all.aspx">Ambrose Bierce</a> to see additional products in this category.</div> https://store.classictalesaudiobooks.com/an-occurrence-at-owl-creek-bridge-and-other-stories-by-ambrose-bierce-p95.aspx Product95 Wed, 23 Feb 2011 21:44:00 GMT <div style="float:left"><a class="url" href="https://store.classictalesaudiobooks.com/an-occurrence-at-owl-creek-bridge-and-other-stories-by-ambrose-bierce-p95.aspx"><img src="//cdn.nexternal.com/classictal/images/OwlCreekBridge-2001.jpg" alt="An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge and Other Stories, by Ambrose Bierce" border="0" hspace="3"></a></div><span class="riRssTitle"><a href="https://store.classictalesaudiobooks.com/an-occurrence-at-owl-creek-bridge-and-other-stories-by-ambrose-bierce-p95.aspx">An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge and Other Stories, by Ambrose Bierce</a></span><br><a href="https://store.classictalesaudiobooks.com/an-occurrence-at-owl-creek-bridge-and-other-stories-by-ambrose-bierce-p95.aspx">Buy Now:</a> <span color="#990000"><b><strike>$2.99</strike> <span color="red"><b>$2.49</b></span></b></span> <br /><br /><div>There is a bridge at Owl Creek that is surrounded by dry and cracking driftwood.
