About this audiobook
This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. Little Jo Salter is barely old enough to walk when fate begins its cruel work. Orphaned by a plague that sweeps the town of Blackburg — a place already famous for unnatural wonders, where crimson snow once fell from the sky — the child is passed from reluctant hands to distant relations, only to be lost, forgotten, and left to wander. And wander he does: a solitary, ragged figure on the roads of America, drawn by something he cannot name back toward the town where his mother lies buried. Told with Bierce's signature blend of mordant irony and unexpected tenderness, "A Baby Tramp" builds toward a quiet, devastating ending in a haunted graveyard — a tale where the bitterest satirist in American letters reveals the broken heart beneath the cynicism.
