Alexander Skarsgård weaves a Wicker story on audio erotica app Quinn

Oh, you're not ready to move on from "The Wicker Husband"? Try a hot willow tree.

Alexander Skarsgård weaves a Wicker story on audio erotica app Quinn

Wicker fans can now indulge in some steamy fan-fiction, courtesy of Alexander Skarsgård's narration on the audio erotica app Quinn. The story, titled "Felled," is a sensual romance rooted in Ursula Williams Jones' short story, "The Wicker Husband," which the film is based on. The fan-fiction contest, launched ahead of the October release of "Wicker," asked for original erotic tales inspired by the world of the movie.

"Felled" follows a willow tree and a farmer's daughter, who find their bond tested by tragedy and eventually reunited.

Skarsgård expressed his delight at Quinn's initiative, praising the company for offering something sensual and erotic that wasn't androcentric. The announcement about his narration was a surprise to both listeners and the author. Quinn CEO Caroline Spiegel stated that partnering with Skarsgård was a no-brainer, as Wicker fans have been incredibly passionate about the film since its debut.

The app now features "Felled" as part of its celebrity-driven catalogue, "Quinn Originals," which launched in 2022 and has already seen works from Andrew Scott, Hudson Williams, and many others.

Your RAG Index Is Already Out of Date: Building an Incremental Ingestion Pipeline

Most retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) tutorials end at the same point: load some documents, split them into chunks, embed them, store them in a vector database and ask questions.

  • Chunk registry maintains stable IDs and content hashes for every chunk.
  • Chunking by headings ensures natural units of meaning, preventing split sentences.
  • Contextual headers provide document-specific information for ambiguous chunks.
