📬 The Keeper of Lost Things

Arthur Peabody has worked as a postman for forty years. Instead of sending undeliverable letters to the Dead Letter Office, he has been quietly collecting them in his spare bedroom. On the morning of his retirement, he selects twelve letters and sets out to deliver them. Each delivery reveals a story: a sister's apology that arrived twenty-seven years late, a former employer's confession of racial prejudice, and an undelivered love letter from a man too shy to knock on a neighbour's door. The story explores themes of communication, regret, human connection, and the extraordinary power of the written word. Features an advanced text-to-speech system with voice selection, sentence-by-sentence reading, play/pause/stop controls, speed adjustment, auto-advance, and progress tracking.
