The beautiful, lyrical writing and unforgettable characters

Revisado: 03-14-24

I loved this book when I read it a few years ago, but listening to it admirably rendered by Zach Appelman, I was able to appreciate to the full the beauty of Anthony Doerr's poetic prose. This book of his alone should win him the Nobel prize, although his perfectly crafted and highly original collections of short stories are just as fine. A wonderful writer.
The narration was almost perfect. I just wish that Appelman had worked harder on hi

Excellent narration - Sarah Nichols is to be praised for an incredible job

Revisado: 01-25-24

Georgette Heyer always lifts my spirits. I return to her time after time. This novel is superbly plotted and full of engaging characters, with its heroine becoming every reader's or listener's favourite. Sarah Nichol's excellent French accent, and her ability to bring each character's accent and personality out, made this Audible version a veritable gem.

Excellent narration and sensitive characterization

Revisado: 12-10-23

I absolutely loved this book which has been brilliantly narrated by Eunice Wong. The book is a charming, funny murder mystery with an unexpected detective who captures the heart, both despite and because of her extreme pushiness.

A charming production

Revisado: 11-26-23

Excellent casting, diction and performance by all. Emma Thompson was particularly enjoyable: wry, sarcastic and needle-sharp.

Meera Syal has done The Inimitable proud

Revisado: 12-31-21

This sustained, authentic performance has been a complete pleasure to listen to. Ms Syal has been able to find an individual voice for each of the myriad characters. She has performed this enormous masterpiece beautifully and most faithfully. I hope she will take on Nicholas Nickleby and Great Expectations. She understands Charles Dickens. I cannot pay her a greater compliment. Her reading of the Afterword in place of a Preface was incredibly moving.

A pleasure from start to finish

Revisado: 08-28-20

Listening to Juliet Stevenson read Middlemarch was an absolute pleasure. She read this lengthy, great, novel perfectly. It was like attending a dramatised version of the novel, because she gave each of the characters a special voice and tempo. How very gifted she is. I think George Eliot would love her interpretation. Thank you, Juliet, and thank you, Audible.
