The Lady, or the Tiger? by Frank R. Stoc...

SCOTT MILLER
About this episode

In a distant, semi-barbaric kingdom, a young lover’s fate hinges on a cruelly ingenious trial: choosing between two doors, one hiding a ferocious tiger and the other concealing a beautiful bride. As the Kings daughter secretly signals her beloved toward a door, we are left to wonder—did her jealousy or love dictate the choice? The Lady, Or The Tiger? By Frank R. Stockton. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.


Francis Richard Stockton was born on April 5th, 1834, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He wrote more than 100 short stories from 1867 to 1912. His most famous story, was the story you are about to hear. Turn to page 83 in the November 1882 issue of Century Illustrated Monthly Magazine, The Lady, Or The Tiger? By Frank R. Stockton…


Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Let’s stay in the 1800s and feature two stories by an American writer, poet, editor, and literary critic who is best known for his poetry and short stories, particularly his tales involving mystery and the macabre. By request, Edgar Allan Poe.
