Miriam is a treasure!

Excellent narration of a classic! Miriam brought the characters to life with varied voices, as well as having a very pleasant voice of her own in between.
More Miriam, please!

Best I’ve ever heard!

I’m a ‘Christmas Carol’ aficionado. I have many copies of the books & movie versions as well as several audio versions. This one, performed by Miriam Margolyes, is simply the very best ever. She is astonishing! Don’t know how she does it, but she makes all other versions—even by superb actors—second best. Buy this one!

A good telling of a classic.

Thoroughly enjoyed listening to the reading of this timeless classic. Wished the story was a little longer. The narrator made the characters believable and emotive.

Definitive performance

This is the definitive performance of this beloved classic, a refreshing contrast to the many inauthentic and, frankly, tiresome reinterpretations
