Elegy, by Charles Beaumont, is available over on Gutenberg.org and that means it’s in the PUBLIC DOMAIN. This short story, by the legendary Charles Beaumont, was adapted as an episode of The Twilight Zone. That’s how I found it, and that’s why it was produced as an audiobook for Tom Elliot’s The Twilight Zone Podcast. But before I detail that let me first offer you this handy |PDF| version.
Here’s the audiobook:

Wonderful!! Thanks for the head’s up, I’m listening as I type this. Beaumont was amazing. I guess you know about the documentary “The Short Life of Twilight Zone’s Magic Man”?
I’ve seen the trailer for The Short Life of Twilight Zone’s Magic Man and posted about it, but have not seen the actual documentary yet.
