The Three Low Masses

"The Three Low Masses" by Alphonse Daudet follows Dom Balaguère, a greedy chaplain whose mind fills with visions of truffled turkeys and fine wines as he rushes through three Christmas Masses on Christmas Eve. Tempted by a devilish altar boy who may not be what he seems, the priest cuts corners with alarming speed, skipping prayers and entire passages to reach the castle supper faster. What unfolds is a darkly comic tale of gluttony, spiritual negligence, and the eerie penance that haunts the ruins of Trinquelague chapel long after the feast is over.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/ririro-com-short-stories--6577582/support.
