In the "Suspense Daily" podcast episode featuring Ernest Hemingway's "A Clean, Well-Lighted Place," listeners are transported to a late-night café where two waiters observe an old, deaf man who enjoys the quiet, well-lit ambiance. They discuss the man's recent suicide attempt, his wealth, and his loneliness, contrasting their own lives with his. The episode vividly captures the nuances of human existence, loneliness, and the need for a place of comfort, framed by Hemingway's masterful storytelling and deep character exploration.
