This CD plays the audio format of the book Bartleby, the Scrivener by author Herman Melville. The book is about a clerk who slowly refuses to do anything for the lawyer who hired him, responding only with “I would prefer not to.”
Transcript
Narrator:
Sometimes from out the folded paper the pale clerk takes a ring...
... the finger it was meant for, perhaps, molders in the grave.
A bank-note sent in swiftest charity - he whom it would relieve...
... nor eats nor hungers any more.
Pardon for those who died despairing.
Hope for those who died unhoping
Good tidings for those who died stifled by unrelieved calamities.
On errands of life, these letters speed to death.
Ah, Bartleby! Ah, humanity!
Back cover
Author:
Herman Melville.
Production:
A tale of the man who would prefer not to.
Location
The loot distributions can be found in the table(s) below.
Effective chance calculations are based off of default 'apocalypse' loot settings, with no luck modifier, and average zombie density. The higher the density of zombies in an area, the higher the effective chance of an item spawning. Chance is also influenced by the lucky and unlucky traits. Duplicate entries do exist, but have been removed for clarity.
