Sippur: A Story a Day

One hand-picked short story a day. No feed, no ads, no signup.

Sippur is a quiet place to read.

Every day, Sippur gives you one short story, a single, carefully chosen piece of public-domain literature, and nothing more.

The library holds more than 200 timeless works: the fables of Aesop, the wit of Chekhov and Maupassant, the moral clarity of Tolstoy, the quiet strangeness of Kafka, ghost stories and folk tales, philosophical parables, and short masterpieces from traditions around the world, all in the public domain.

CHOOSE YOUR PACE Some days you want a two-minute fable; some days a longer classic. A simple Short / Mid / Long setting decides how much time today's story should ask of you, from quick reads under five minutes to fuller works up to twenty.

MADE FOR CALM READING • One story a day, a small literary pause, not another feed • 200+ public-domain stories, in English and Hebrew • Short, Mid, or Long - from two-minute fables to twenty-minute classics • An optional, gentle daily reminder at a time you choose • Light and dark themes, adjustable text size • Share a story, or turn a favorite line into a quote card • Works fully offline

PRIVATE BY DESIGN Sippur collects nothing. There are no accounts and no analytics. Everything it remembers, your history, your preferences - stays on your device and never reaches us.

One story a day. Nothing more.
