Jerome K Jerome (2 May 1859 - 14 June 1927) was an English writer and humorist, best known for the humorous travelogue Three Men in a Boat. Members Reviews: Jerome hangs characters from melodramas out to dry I like theatrical history and wanted a new book on the subject. I plugged "Theatrical History" into Amazon's Advanced Search and I came across this work. I have wanted to read Jerome K. Jerome's Three Men in a Boat as I understand it is a comedy classic, so I looked forward to seeing what he had to say about English theater. I had a fine time reading this, sometimes having to halt until my laughing subsided. We worry about television and the movies presenting unreal views of life but Jerome shows that even the stage is like this. Characters find themselves alone on usually busy London streets. A heroine wandering is always pursued by snowstorms. The hero, no matter how severe the environment, is always wearing shiny patent leather shoes. Jerome writes of trying to use theater repartee and behavior in the real world and the result is finding himself in deep and meaningful conversations with judges and lawyers. His characterizations of the stock characters of Victorian and Edwardian melodrama characters absolutely hit the mark. If you are into theater and/or love hilarious satire, this is one of those books you just have to read. fun satirical essays on theater This isn't a play or novel itself, but rather a series of short satirical essays on the conventions and cliches of theater. There are essays, for example, on the stage hero, the stage heroine, the stage villain, the stage "adventuress" (read "tramp"), the stage lawyer, etc. I enjoyed this a lot, particularly some bits about what passes for stage "law" -- e.g., that whoever finds the will, gets to inherit --- and his observations about how the stage hero always manages to knock out three or more villains with a single punch, all for the glory of the most insipid stage heroine, whose charms are never as evident as they seem to be to the stage hero. If you enjoy theater, particularly from that period, and don't mind seeing it ridiculed, you should enjoy this. If you never read or see plays, then this may not be of interest. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/John-Halifax-Gentleman-Volume-Two-Audiobook/B00558P6E2 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: John Halifax, Gentleman: Volume Two Author: Dinah Craik Narrator: Peter Joyce Format: Unabridged Length: 4 hrs and 57 mins Language: English Release date: 06-13-11 Publisher: Assembled Stories Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Classics, British Literature Publisher's Summary: This is Volume Two of the greatest romantic narrative novel of the early 19th century. John Halifax, Gentleman, tells the story of an orphan boy whose first words in the story are Sir, I want work; may I earn a penny? By hard work, diligent study and an unshakeable faith in his God, John attains wealth and happiness, despite much hardship and heartbreak throughout his life. The story chronicles the class movement of the time and gives us a remarkable description of social, political, and industrial change. Set in Gloucestershire in the heart of England and told by Phineas, his soul mate and lifelong friend, who observes John through all his glorious moments, self-doubt and resolution, the story is simple, uplifting and heroic. It is a detailed study of a man and his family that also presents the listener with a broad view of Britain during one of its most troubled times. A genuine classic, most entertaining, and certainly a tale which lives up to the appellation epic in its conception and delivery, John Halifax, Gentleman was first published in 1856. Due to popular demand, it has never been out of print. This is the first unabridged recording of Dinah Craiks masterpiece. About Assembled Stories: Over the years the national press have reviewed Assembled Stories titles as "excellent", "remarkable", "entrancing", "superb", "magic for sure", "masterly", "wonderful", "a class act" and "a splendid example of audio at its best". Critic Reviews: This tremendous family story is set in a period of stormy social change from the 1770s to the 1830s. In his journey from penniless orphan to mill owning philanthropist, John is driven by duty, his love of God and humanity. The effects of war and bad harvests on the rural poor and corruption of parliamentary rotten boroughs [in one of which Halifax refuses to stand] are a small part of the wide-ranging backdrop. Every hour is hugely rewarding - and what an accomplished reading. It conveys every nuance of emotion, making the listener feel richer for having lived through so much. (Observer) "Peter Joyce is the most remarkable one-man band in audiobook publishing. Joyce, an experienced actor, reads them all himself." (The Independent) "Heres such a neglected Victorian classic, a huge bestseller in its day, ready to be rediscovered through Joyces excellent reading."

This Kindle version is not the unexpurgated test first published by Cambridge University Press in 1992, It is the version extensively edited by Edward Garnett and first published in 1913, and omits approximately 100 pages of Lawrence's original manuscript. Garnett also made several editorial changes to make the text less controversial for the times. This was the only version available to readers for almost 80 years after it was written. "Sons and Lovers" is a semi-autobiographical novel in which the story's main protagonist, Paul Morel, struggles to maintain relationships with two female characters (Miriam and Clara) despite an almost Oedipian relationship with his mother, whose own disastrous marriage drives her to focus an abnormal amount of affection on her sons. Paradoxically he ends up killing his mother (out of kindness) rather than his father. Paul is a frustratingly complex individual and, for me, less than authentic. If this were not so evidently autobiographical I would be more skeptical. Lawrence himself, while the son of an essentially illiterate coal miner and a school teacher, attended Nottingham Grammar School and the University of Nottingham before becoming a teacher himself. His alter ego in the novel, Paul Morel, leaves school at the age of thirteen and becomes employed one year later, taking night school lessons and studying art. Despite his father and presumably his boyhood friends speaking in a thick East Midlands accent (although his mother does not) he seems to develop an almost unbelievably artiiculate manner of speech. Where does something like âOh. You make me knit the brows of my very soul and cogitateâ come from? It doesnât ring true to me, although Lawrence himself was obviously very intelligent. Paul Morel lacks his education however. The seeming oversuse of the word "hate" throughout the text also puzzles me. As an example: "And why did he hate Miriam, and feel so cruel towards her, at the thought of his mother. If Miriam caused his mother suffering then he hated her - and he easily hated her." And this is the girl he is supposedly falling in love with. Perhaps "hate" implied something different almost 100 years ago. Is this an example of semantic drift? I found it disturbing. Despite these minor irritations I did enjoy reading "Sons and Lovers" and immediately went on to read the unexpurgated version of "Lady Chatterley's Lover" which Lawrence wrote towards the end of his relatively short life while living in Italy. I found that to be a much more enjoyable read. Escaping a Hardscrabble Start and Possessive Mother Literature features few characters as blown this way and that and as snuggly tied to a mother's apron strings as Paul Morel, D. H.

Two brothers are building the haystack, but thinking about other things about young women, and love. There are angry words, and then a fight between the brothers. But the work goes on, visitors come and go, and the long, hot summer day slowly turns to evening. Then the sun goes down, covering the world with a carpet of darkness.

Title: Martin Chuzzlewit Author: Charles Dickens Narrator: Sean Barrett Format: Abridged Length: 9 hrs and 12 mins Language: English Release date: 11-18-10 Publisher: Naxos AudioBooks Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Classics, British Literature Publisher's Summary: The Chuzzlewits are a family divided by money and selfishness; even young Martin, the eponymous hero, is arrogant and self-centered. He offends his grandfather by falling in love with the latters ward, Mary, and sets out to make his own fortune in life, traveling as far as America which produces from Dickens a savage satire on a new world tainted with the vices of the old. Martins nature slowly changes through his bitter experience of life and his enduring love for Mary. Martin Chuzzlewit is one of Dickens most humorous and satirical novels, and it contains two great comic creations: the hypocrite Pecksniff and the drunken nurse Sarah Gamp. Editorial Reviews: Neither Dickens's funniest work nor his most memorable, this one is still a treasure trove of shameless scoundrels and delicious melodrama. The subject is hypocrisy, and Pecksniff is its avatar, though the drunk nurse Sairy Gamp isn't far behind him. Sean Barrett's Pecksniff is the epitome of smarm, hilariously unrepentant even when cornered. Little mars the pleasure of Barrett's performance of crafty, old Martin Chuzzlewit himself. Chuzzlewit plays the gullible invalid for much of the story, querulous and difficult. The deep, full-throated virile-old-man voice Barrett switches to when he reveals his true nature is marvelous, like the tearing away of a curtain. bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (Charles Dickens) Thu, 18 Nov 2010 07:37:09 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Martin-Chuzzlewit-Audiobook/B004CZ19Y0 thebookvoice.com 09:12:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: TV and Movies versions were good, but the book is better. . . One of my co-workers encouraged me to read this since I have only seen the TV/Movie versions. It was a quick read and very enjoyable. Fortunately, the TV/Movie versions weren't too far off the mark. Regardless, there were facets of the story that you would only get through the book, which is why reading the book will always be my favorite option. BAH! HUMBUG!! "God bless Us, Every One" A Christmas Carol is a beloved Christmas favorite. Nothing says Christmas like favorite Christmas stories. This timeless tale has been told in many versions. Iâve seen the movie and play but Iâve never read the book. I thought it was about time to finally read this tale. The illustrations throughout the book were fun to look at. Not common to find illustrations in books today unless they are children stories. Lots of great quotes come from this story but the most famous is BAH! HUMBUG! followed by: "God bless Us, Every One!" Standalone As great to read vs as to watch as a production. We've enjoyed many kinds of productions of this classic Scrooge story. The original makes us 'rise to the occasion' - or at least gets us to mentally take the time to step back in that era. Life was so different, so the real factor is (I think) a little richer, than already assembled viewables. Emotional, and the older language adds some incentive to digging into the story. A must read! Dickens has always intimidated me. Somehow, I made my way through high school and college without having to read one of his novels. Finally, a few weeks before Christmas, I decided to give this a try when I learned it is relatively short. I figured if it took some work, at least it wouldn't take all that long. I'm sorry I waited so long. It was impossible for me to separate this from the many versions of A Christmas Carol I've seen over the years. I loved it. I enjoyed the glimpse into the time and place of the story. The story and theme are, of course, legendary. Don't be intimidated. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Pride-Prejudice-Audiobook/B003YUXUXW Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: Pride & Prejudice Author: Jane Austen Narrator: Neil Conrich Format: Abridged Length: 2 hrs and 43 mins Language: English Release date: 08-09-10 Publisher: The Copyright Group Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Classics, British Literature Publisher's Summary: This classic and groundbreaking novel by Jane Austen (16th December 1775 18th July 1817) depicts a young womans quest for love, surrounded by the themes and issues of the early 19th century.

Austen never married and lived her entire life amongst her close family members, who were amongst the lower fringes of the English gentry - similar to that of the characters in Pride Prejudice.

Classic I Know I have tried this one before and was distracted within the first five chapters but with the advise of a colleague I am going to attempt this one again. I am late 30's and sometimes have a tough time focusing for long spans of time unless the story is captivating from the get go, you have to appreciate writing for the sake of verb-age and description to get into this. So, because it is a classic and I think the classics should be read - I'll give it another go but not looking forward to it despite the wonderful reviews. Hated Pride and Prejudice too - just depends on personal taste I suppose.

It does feel like his books, though short, are a marathon of a read, since there are no chapters or other page breaks that can generally chop up the story, like into different periods of time or different scenes. I guess I am just used to the modern way a story is broken up. To get to the tale itself, I really enjoyed it, and throughout the whole of it, you really do feel for the woman, who we generally don't know the name of. She goes thru a lot, failed romances, certainly many marriages, abandoned children, broken hearts and a few twists as well that I hadn't expected (thank goodness I never read a synopsis that gave away anything before completing it). I was a little frustrated with the ending, for I wish the author had given a little more description of some of her children that she left behind. For a couple of them, sons I believe, 'Moll' said how torn and saddened she felt about leaving those children behind. I thought it so heartless of her, for, being a mother myself, I could never contemplate abandoning mine, no matter the reason. Or if events parted us, I would never rest until I found him again, or discovered what happened to him. I don't know, I guess that her heartlessness in that regard lost a little bit of my sympathy in the end, since I thought by the end of the tale, we would discover what had happened to all of her children. I do plan on reading "Robinson Crusoe" soon, but I have a feeling that "Moll Flanders" will remain my favorite of Defoe's Interesting read I loved the visual starring Robin Wright, Morgan Freeman and Stockard Channing and trust me when I say the movie version which was based on the book, is about as far removed from the book as possible. That being said, I can only imagine when this was published in 1721, it caused more than a few eyebrows to raise or wigs to pop off readers heads. The author has created a character that repeatedly reinvented herself as her circumstances changed and indeed it's hard not to like her. I did find a few of the scenarios that occurred in the story of historic value, so there is something to be learned from this work. I can't say that I was totally taken with the book but I did find it interesting. Classic banned novel is full of sex but without vulgar words This novel, written in the 1700âs, is a classic. Although Moll is often naked in bed, no vulgar words are used to describe the goings on. This gives a sense of excitement to the reader who imagines the goings on. If modern authors so employed the imagination of readers in their books they might write books that will become classics too. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Robinson-Crusoe-Audiobook/B0036GIN68 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

That was way back, when schools actually required students to read at least 4 books, each semester of every year, just for their English course. While the syntax and language are, at times, arcane, the story is a classic one, to which I recommend all readers. Good man found his way I read this book , when I was 10or 12 years old. I was amazed how I saw Robinson Crusoe and Friday this time. I saw a man doing penance for some wrong dealings , and earning his way back to society. A classic I tried to read this book when I was a teenager and I was put off by the language and writing style. This time I stayed with it and was glad I did. The writing style is quite a bit different than today's. Some of the sentences in this book were three pages long. I viewed it on a Kindle and was glad to have the dictionary available to look up some of the terms used. Overall a very good book. It dragged in some spots, especially when he spends forty pages discussing why the settlers should marry the women they've lived with. The scanning was haphazard - there was no editing after it was scanned, so page numbers and odd notations are scattered randomly throughout. It was free, so I can't complain too much. Perfect for someone who still enjoys picking up a book! Purchased as a gift for a family member. This was not a new copy and I did not want a new one. The condition was exactly as stated in the description. Classic story and the great feel of an old book. Quite a combination. Good read! How do you get as old as me and not have read Robinson Crusoe?

(P)1996 Hodder & Stoughton Audiobooks Members Reviews: Disappointment Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice is one of the best loved and best known classics of English literature. This version is read by Juliet Stevenson, one of the best readers, whose voice is perfectly suited to Jane Austen's style. However the book has been so cut up, so clumsily and brutally abridged, and so much of Jane Austen's elegant writing has been removed that it is hardly possible even to follow the bare bones of the story. We jump from one scene to another with no explanation, making it almost impossible to understand what is happening and with no attempt to build the atmosphere or to flesh-out the characters. Jane Austen's very real, understandable and amusing characters have seem reduced to mere cardboard cut-outs, and this is hardly more than a bald synopsis of thestory. A desecration! Abridged! Maybe my fault for not reading details but be aware this is a quite badly abridged version (but read excellently) https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Silas-Marner-Audiobook/B002VA96IO Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: "Hope for the Hopeless . . ." This was a fine story and novel, almost a novella as it is not lengthy. This is a story about a weaver and the weaving trade in days gone by. It is a story about a steady personality (the protagonist) who overcomes devastating adversity and personal cruelty under small favourable circumstances which are both unpredictable for the reader and could be true to life. This novel, could be based on a true story for its detail and convincing authenticity of trade and character development. The storyline lent itself well to being dramatized with Sir Ben Kingsley playing "Silas" in the 1980's BBC production which adheres well to the intention expressed in the novel by George Eliot The paperback by George Elliot makes a fine gift for a young person starting life. not just for high school students Most of my friends read Silas Marner in high school English and still shudder, but my high school marched to a different drummer (or none) and I had never read it. No one would pretend that it is one of George Eilot's masterpieces -- it's no Middlemarch, not by a long shot. But even in its much smaller way, it has all the germs of her intelligence, literary style, and human compassion, even when tainted by a certain predictability and triteness of plot. It also has Eliot's greatest weakness, which is that she seems to lose interest in the central situation she creates once it has been fully developed, and as in many of her (greater) books, rushes to the end once it is in sight. Still, no person who wishes to be thought literate in English literature should not have read Silas Marner. For whatever shortcomings it may have, it's a page turner by a literary master. It's a classic! I very much enjoyed this classic book. I was never required to read it in school, so had no preconceived opinion about it. It was a sad tale with a happy ending of the "and they lived happily ever after type." The only reasoning I rated it 4 stars instead of 5 is because of all the detail. Like a lot of classics, there was so much detail that I neither wanted nor understood. For the most part, I just skimmed over it. Nevertheless, I found it a good story, well worth the time to read. Sorry I didn't read it earlier I was supposed to read this book in 9th grade but didn't. Fudged my way through. Now, fifty-four years later, I regret not doing my assignments. Eliot accurately captures the lifestyle and culture of 19th century rural England. She also clearly demonstrates the unconscious loss a hoarder and a loner sustains. Is there a moral here? Perhaps more of a reminder to us of where gold really lies. An outstanding story. This is a fabulous story. I have read it many times in a regular edition. This edition is very large with small print. It is like a large sheet of paper. I bought it for my granddaughter and she still has not read the book due to the size I imagine. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/What-Maisie-Knew-Audiobook/B002V8H1HY Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Fine late James This book is a masterfully and uncannily astute and deep look into the mind of a child as she observes and is battered by the world of adults. James' deftly delicate treatment the story is moving and enchanting at the same time. enjoyable second reading Having struggled once through Henry James's late prose style in What Maisie Knew, I appreciated it a lot more the second time with the help of Flo Gibson's recording. This is the only audio of this book that I have been able to find, and Gibson's style works pretty well here, although it is sing-songy and monotonous at times. I often went back to read sections I had heard to better pick up the humor and nuances. The sound quality is not great; a few words here and there are inaudible. A+ Anyone interested in children, parenthood, selfishness, or personality should read this book. Henry James is obviously one of the most empathetic storytellers in English, as well as one of the most honest. Flo Gibson's narration is perfect. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Bleak-House-Audiobook/B002V5CT1U Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

JoeDanDonigi Each adventure he encounters radically different problems. The Voyages of Lemuel Gulliver include first, people six inches tall, second a land of giants seventy or so feet tall, and people living in an island-cloud. The fourth voyage, were his men mutiny, foreshadowing the darker side of human nature that follows. They desert on an island where the Houyhnhnms rule. A land of noble talking horses, who can't believe Gulliver has intelligence, ala Planet of the Apes, because the humans/Yahoos on their island seem but. This causes a series of discussions with Gulliver and his "master" a horse who can't grasp lying, greediness and all the various other human frailties. A in his discussions with his master causes Gulliver to be more and more disgusted with the Yahoos on their island and even the humans back home. If knew more about 1850's English history I might of understood the societal, political times of England and Europe in general at that time. There is also an annotated volume which includes more detail. But I didn't read it so don't feel qualified to make an opinion on it, just letting people who are interested informing them it's out there. Photoman35mm A classic I recommend the classic novels in literature to everyone, however, this Novel test your endurance. The beginning of the novel is very good very interesting and reads well. The last roughly 3rd slows down a bit and is difficult to stay with . Over all I did enjoy reading this book . KINDLE VERSION FORMATTING SUCKS THIS REVIEW SPECIFICALLY FOR THE KINDLE EDITION-- I was disappointed with the formatting on this classic. At least on my Kindle Fire, the footnote and endnote shortcuts seem to malfunction. Some bad line breaks and lots of small annoying things contribute to an overall less than satisfactory experience. But it is free. A Fantastic Voyage This is far better than any of the various film versions of this novel. A tv mini series starring Ted Danson seems to get the author's satarical nature instead of just being a voyage to four fantastical lands.

Members Reviews: Amazon's Book Cover is misleading The nude woman bookcover on Amazon's page seems to imply this is perhaps a racy type book which couldn't be further from the truth. It is a series of anecdotes about a @1900 English fictional couple in their 40s I'd guess who are childless. Very tame short humorous stories told by the husband about his life with his wife, Eliza. The couple are like an English version of George Burns and Gracie Allen. A gentle chuckle of a book.

I've enjoyed all of Austen's books, and perhaps the audible version doesn't work for me. I will have to try the hardcopy of 'Sanditon.' Has "Sanditon" and Excerpts from the Novels turned you off from other books in this genre? No. There will be others. Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Flo Gibson? Wouldn't have changed the narration. If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from "Sanditon" and Excerpts from the Novels? I would have introduced a little more action among the stories of individual characters. Any additional comments? Unfortunately, I'm hard-pressed to relate much, if anything, about the story. There was an accident with a carriage early on, and much to-do about the new seaside resort of Sanditon, but I came away with little else. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/The-Sea-Lady-Audiobook/B01N17RYPM Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Quirky short story I've never read H. G. Wells before. I do try to read as many classics as I can but with so many books on my wish list, sometimes they get pushed to the backburner. I'm fascinated by mermaids and this story caught my eye. I'd never heard of it before and just happened to see it when scrolling through book titles online. I found it for free on Kindle and read it within two days. It's a short story and I probably could have finished it in a few hours but with working full time and a two year old I just can't read as much as I'd like. Anyway....this was a really interesting little story. Set during 1899, a proper English family takes in a mermaid and passes her off as human. It's rather humorous how they react to her and she reacts to them and being on land. The whole time, I'm thinking that she's got to be up to something unsavory and I can't wait to read more to find out why she really came to shore and what will happen with the people who have befriended her. The whole story is told by a narrator who has his "facts" second and even third hand from "eyewitnesses." I've never read a story quite like that. The language was a little difficult to understand, sometimes, but nothing too difficult. I'm afraid of giving away too much, so I'll stop there. If you like mermaids, and light reading with a small touch of mystery, then I recommend this book. Thoroughly entertaining Another gem from the master. Great passages of brilliant prose. It starts as a comedy of manners with elements of fantasy - there's a mermaid. Then it gets darker as we come to suspect the sea lady's motives...why did she come, what does she mean to do....how will this end. You'll have to read it to find out. This really should be better known. It came during the masters peak period between 1895 and 1905. Place this with the best of his work. This is a satire that would have appealed to H ... This is a satire that would have appealed to H.G Well's contemporaries. It reminded me of a long magazine article on social mores and customs. I could not finish it. Ho-hum The characters weren't likable or even kowable. It felt like a forced story, never a conveyance of a life event. Fun fantasy about a mermaid 2 stars for the plot and development of the story: it exposes differences among people, I believe Wells intended to show how a different person can adapt to the (Victorian) society. another star because it's fun and humorous on star because it's free https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Far-from-the-Madding-Crowd-Audiobook/B002UZL2UK Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

How man adjusts and incorporates the surroundings. And the terror of freedom. I needed to read this poem before visiting Chillon. ... I needed to read this poem before visiting Chillon.

Members Reviews: A couple diamonds in the rough, but mostly rubbish I am a big Jane Austen fan, but some of this was actually painful to read. This is a collection of works she never finished, and honestly, if I were her, I'd be embarrassed to have anyone reading most of what's in this. The first part is the worst, the second is improved but not great. Her history of England is amusing, but hardly grounded in fact - this was the most enjoyable part of the collection. After there is a disconnected collection of fictional letters (one of which is of interest for I feel it formed the idea of Sense and Sensibility to her) & lastly another incomplete book. All the incomplete works are epistolary novels. Her history is complete. The diverment of the history & the singular letter mentioned are the only things I consider worth the time of reading. Otherwise, please pass this by & read one of her complete works. Good for Austen Completists, But Consider a Different Edition This is an early Jane Austen work, written when she was a teenager and unpublished during her lifetime. It's not a great story, but is a good read for serious Austen fans - you can see her experimenting with the ideas and techniques that she would later use to better effect. The book is a romance told in a series of letters, but mocks many of the conventions of romances. My main complaint about this particular edition is the typesetting, which is done with unappealing and difficult to read block print. If you're interested, I would recommend that you start with the (free) Kindle version, or look atLove and Freindship: And Other Early Works of Jane Austen (Classic Reprint), which looks like it was typeset more appealingly. For Austen Fans Only Early works from Jane Austen. Some of the stories are funny, but in that dry, British kind of funny. Others were just annoying, like an Aunt going on-and-on about how put out they were about what to do with wedding dinner after the groom died just before the wedding. Not the best, but again, it's early works, so definitely doesn't have the same polish as many of her other stories. A Naughty Austen! That Jane, she is such a naughty writer. For those of you who think her the height of Victorian respectability and prudence, delve into the tale where she shows her wickedly funny side. This is a collection of letters, rather than a traditional novel. She wrote this in notebooks prior to becoming an adult and it reads like the 'rough drafts' it probably was. Actually most of the book reads like a really funny Saturday Night Live skit. It is a story told through letters about a young couple in love. Naturally, one of them dies and the other is left to carry on in a cruel and wicked world. Sound sad? Not an all! The entire thing is a parody of the sentimentality that was so popular in the novels of the time. A tongue in cheek classic that was delight from the first page. Well then. I wasn't sure what to expect but I read it. Just a bunch of letters from different people in life. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Mrs-Dalloway-Swedish-Edition-Audiobook/B01CF3AJAK Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Before reading this book my outstanding memory of Macbeth was having been given it as my first book to read for my English Literature classes at school many moons ago. I can remember my mum and I having a nightmare time trying to understand all the old English words - how I wish this eBook had been available then. For those who wish (or have to) read the classics this little book is a must. It has plenty of the original quotes by Shakespeare but around them the story is written in straight forward, easy to understand English. I can honestly say that I would have had a lot happier time reading this aged 14 than the daunting original. Well done to Phillip J. Mather, the author for presenting a classic story in a easy to read way. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Emma-Danish-Edition-Audiobook/B00TUQLV3A Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: Emma [Danish Edition] Author: Jane Austen Narrator: Annette Grunnet Format: Unabridged Length: 16 hrs and 16 mins Language: English Release date: 02-25-15 Publisher: Viatone Genres: Classics, British Literature Publisher's Summary: Emma Woodhouse er bde smuk, intelligent og rig. Efter sin mors dd har hun indtaget rollen som frstedame p Hartfield, hvor hun bor sammen med sin omsorgsfulde, men noget hypokondriske far. Woodhouse-familien er en af de fornemmeste p egnen, og Emma er meget bevidst om sin overlegne position svel som sine vrige fortrin. Da hun ptager sig rollen som Kirsten Giftekniv over for sin veninde Harriet, lber hendes livlige fantasi flere gange af med hende, og hendes tendens til at nre lidt for hje tanker om sig selv og sin egen dmmekraft medfrer utallige forviklinger og fr helt uforudsete konsekvenser. Emma, som ogs er meget krlig og charmerende, har mange venner, der tilsyneladende alle er blinde over for hendes fejl. Bortset fra Mr. Knightley. Han forsger utrtteligt at f den stdige Emma til at indse sin egen indbildskhed, men da hun endelig begynder at indrmme sandheden over for sig selv, er det lige ved at vre for sent.

Critic Reviews: "Bogen er som en brusende kvadrille med partnerskifte, til alle efter megen uvished finder den rette totalbilledets elskvrdighed er uimodstelig." (Jacob Paludan, Politiken) "Rene mesterstykker er portrtterne af den snakkesyge Miss Bates og Emmas far, den gamle forpylrede Mr. Woodhouse.

Giv dem andre hatte, bukser eller kjoler p, og vi har dem spadserende rundt imellem os i dag." (Mogens Knudsen, Information) "Klassikeren Emma har 200 r p bagen.

Members Reviews: Parable about a magical being who is granted a soul because she loves beauty and desires to worship God, and yet comes to regret Very engaging, and at the same time pretty story. It is written in a kind of "fine wtiting" style that does a great job of transporting the reader to a world where magic might be real. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/The-Thirty-Nine-Steps-Audiobook/B00TKRF8Y2 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: Bloodstock and Other Stories Author: Margaret Irwin Narrator: Sean Barrett, Lucy Scott Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 15 mins Language: English Release date: 01-20-15 Publisher: Audible Studios Genres: Classics, British Literature Publisher's Summary: The first five stories in this collection are stories from Ireland, exploring the dark history of the country and the dogged optimism of its people. The following four tales are of the uncanny - striking studies of witchcraft and black magic, evoking a strange haunting atmosphere illustrating the power of evil and its effect on the imagination. 'Mrs. Oliver Cromwell' is a revealing glimpse of the Lord Protector through the eyes of his homely unassuming wife, unhappy in the unaccustomed grandeur thrust upon her by circumstances. The last story 'Where beauty lies' is an eighteenth century frolic over a nobleman's choice of bride. Margaret Irwin (1889-1969) was educated at Clifton High School in Bristol, and then at Oxford University. She began writing books and short stories in the early 1920s. She married childrens author and illustrator John Robert Monsell in 1929. Irwin was praised for her historical accuracy in her novels, and she wrote passionately about the English Civil War.

Members Reviews: TV and Movies versions were good, but the book is better. . . One of my co-workers encouraged me to read this since I have only seen the TV/Movie versions. It was a quick read and very enjoyable. Fortunately, the TV/Movie versions weren't too far off the mark. Regardless, there were facets of the story that you would only get through the book, which is why reading the book will always be my favorite option. BAH! HUMBUG!! "God bless Us, Every One" A Christmas Carol is a beloved Christmas favorite. Nothing says Christmas like favorite Christmas stories. This timeless tale has been told in many versions. Iâve seen the movie and play but Iâve never read the book. I thought it was about time to finally read this tale. The illustrations throughout the book were fun to look at. Not common to find illustrations in books today unless they are children stories. Lots of great quotes come from this story but the most famous is BAH! HUMBUG! followed by: "God bless Us, Every One!" Standalone As great to read vs as to watch as a production. We've enjoyed many kinds of productions of this classic Scrooge story. The original makes us 'rise to the occasion' - or at least gets us to mentally take the time to step back in that era. Life was so different, so the real factor is (I think) a little richer, than already assembled viewables. Emotional, and the older language adds some incentive to digging into the story. A must read! Dickens has always intimidated me. Somehow, I made my way through high school and college without having to read one of his novels. Finally, a few weeks before Christmas, I decided to give this a try when I learned it is relatively short. I figured if it took some work, at least it wouldn't take all that long. I'm sorry I waited so long. It was impossible for me to separate this from the many versions of A Christmas Carol I've seen over the years. I loved it. I enjoyed the glimpse into the time and place of the story. The story and theme are, of course, legendary. Don't be intimidated. This is a book everyone should read at least once. Classic I Know I have tried this one before and was distracted within the first five chapters but with the advise of a colleague I am going to attempt this one again. I am late 30's and sometimes have a tough time focusing for long spans of time unless the story is captivating from the get go, you have to appreciate writing for the sake of verb-age and description to get into this. So, because it is a classic and I think the classics should be read - I'll give it another go but not looking forward to it despite the wonderful reviews. Hated Pride and Prejudice too - just depends on personal taste I suppose.

Members Reviews: Defoe's Best, So Far Having read only one other Defoe novel before, that being "Roxana", I must say this is my favorite so far, and it seems to be the same for the majority of other readers. It does feel like his books, though short, are a marathon of a read, since there are no chapters or other page breaks that can generally chop up the story, like into different periods of time or different scenes. I guess I am just used to the modern way a story is broken up. To get to the tale itself, I really enjoyed it, and throughout the whole of it, you really do feel for the woman, who we generally don't know the name of. She goes thru a lot, failed romances, certainly many marriages, abandoned children, broken hearts and a few twists as well that I hadn't expected (thank goodness I never read a synopsis that gave away anything before completing it). I was a little frustrated with the ending, for I wish the author had given a little more description of some of her children that she left behind. For a couple of them, sons I believe, 'Moll' said how torn and saddened she felt about leaving those children behind. I thought it so heartless of her, for, being a mother myself, I could never contemplate abandoning mine, no matter the reason. Or if events parted us, I would never rest until I found him again, or discovered what happened to him. I don't know, I guess that her heartlessness in that regard lost a little bit of my sympathy in the end, since I thought by the end of the tale, we would discover what had happened to all of her children. I do plan on reading "Robinson Crusoe" soon, but I have a feeling that "Moll Flanders" will remain my favorite of Defoe's Interesting read I loved the visual starring Robin Wright, Morgan Freeman and Stockard Channing and trust me when I say the movie version which was based on the book, is about as far removed from the book as possible. That being said, I can only imagine when this was published in 1721, it caused more than a few eyebrows to raise or wigs to pop off readers heads. The author has created a character that repeatedly reinvented herself as her circumstances changed and indeed it's hard not to like her. I did find a few of the scenarios that occurred in the story of historic value, so there is something to be learned from this work. I can't say that I was totally taken with the book but I did find it interesting. Classic banned novel is full of sex but without vulgar words This novel, written in the 1700âs, is a classic. Although Moll is often naked in bed, no vulgar words are used to describe the goings on. This gives a sense of excitement to the reader who imagines the goings on. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/The-Politeness-of-Princess-Audiobook/B00T6T1KW8 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: Diary of an Old Man Author: Chaim Bermant Narrator: Stephen Thorne Format: Unabridged Length: 3 hrs and 55 mins Language: English Release date: 01-15-15 Publisher: Audible Studios Genres: Classics, British Literature Publisher's Summary: "Yes," as Cyril might say, "being old's all right, once you get past the age of trying to be young." Diary Of An Old Man is a real tour de force. It covers one winter month in the life of an old man living on a tiny pension. The prosaic events which are recounted - keeping warm, finding accommodation, cooking, reading papers in the local library - conceal an extraordinary feat of imagination on the part of the author: Mr. Bermant's concept of Cyril, his narrator, is so complete that this book is not only intensely moving, but is also a real contribution to an understanding of the human condition. It has become costumary for a sociologist to speak of "the problem of old age"; but until the "problem" is accepted subjectively, by individuals, it is an empty phrase. In this very unusual, often very funny book, Mr. Bermant strips the reader of all illusions, and shows just what it is to be old, and poor, and friendless, and yet not to lose a sense of humour or the will to live. Chaim Bermant (1929-1998) was born in Breslev, Poland and moved to Glasgow, Scotland at the age of 8. He was educated in Glasgow and became a teacher before joining Scottish TV and then Granada. Bermant became a prominent Anglo-Jewish journalist, and had a regular coloumn in The Jewish Chronicle and occasionally to the national press, particularly The Observer and The Daily Telegraph. During his lifetime, Bermant wrote a number of scripts for both Radio and Television, including the BBC, as well as several for Anglia TV. Bermant's book, The Squire of Bor Shachor was serialized on the Radio and Bermant also appeared in several productions in person, including, in 1981, one of the BBC's 'Everyman' series. Bermant wrote a total of 31 books; his novels and non-fiction works reflect his sometimes controversial opinions and his observations on Anglo-Jewish society. bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (Chaim Bermant) Thu, 15 Jan 2015 02:16:46 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Diary-of-an-Old-Man-Audiobook/B00S8PH1OM thebookvoice.com 03:55:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

I received a free audio copy to review for the narrator and I think the narrator did a really good job! There was a lot of intrigue in the story and both that and the way the narrator preformed the story kept me going! I received this audiobook in return for an honest review I really enjoyed this and I think the narrator did a really good job! I'd defo listen to more of his work. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/The-Attic-Audiobook/B00HYHA3RC Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Great, great one-act play Truly one of the more important plays. Period. Too timely to believe. I saw it last year and have been buying copies for my friends since. Woman rejects the cult of success in favor of real friendships--and in favor of independence--all of it couldn't be more relevant. It is also a small work of perfection. If I taught playwriting, I'd have this on the syllabus for sure. It's completely readable and also spell-binding on stage, funny, rueful, full of surprises. J.M. Barrie is a feminist trailblazer with this story! In 1914 a man (yes a man) gives wives permission to look for justification and a life outside of their home and away from their husband! Barrie responds to Ibsen's DOLL'S HOUSE with penache and humor!

Title: Oliver Goldsmith (1730 - 1774) Author: Oliver Goldsmith Narrator: Neville Jason Format: Unabridged Length: 8 mins Language: English Release date: 12-04-13 Publisher: Naxos AudioBooks Ratings: 2 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Classics, British Literature Publisher's Summary: This is an essay from the Favorite Essays collection. Here, in this unusual collection, are some of the greatest essays in Western literature. Witty, informative and imaginative, the topics vary from starvation in Ireland, fine China, the extension of railways in the Lake District, and the tombs in Westminster Abbey. A little like after-dinner monologues, they are passing thoughts expressed as journalism. Neville Jason reads with urbane clarity. Editorial Reviews: Neville Jason performs a series of short, famous essays that are perfect to fill those spare 10 or 20 minutes with musings from our world's greatest thinkers. In this audio essay, Jason performs Oliver Goldsmith's essay from 1760, "On National Prejudices". Goldsmith, author of the play She Stoops to Conquer, harps on the ridiculousness of unquestioned nationalism, bemoaning how even England's most educated gentlemen do not feel as citizens of the world. Jason's clear enunciation and deliberate pacing make Goldsmith's antiquated syntax approachable for modern audiences. Meanwhile, Jason gets Goldsmith's grandiose, if not arrogant, tone spot-on. bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (Oliver Goldsmith) Wed, 04 Dec 2013 08:46:49 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Oliver-Goldsmith-1730-1774-Audiobook/B00G4CZU9Y thebookvoice.com 00:08:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Goldsmith, author of the play She Stoops to Conquer, harps on the ridiculousness of unquestioned nationalism, bemoaning how even England's most educated gentlemen do not feel as citizens of the world. Jason's clear enunciation and deliberate pacing make Goldsmith's antiquated syntax approachable for modern audiences. Meanwhile, Jason gets Goldsmith's grandiose, if not arrogant, tone spot-on.

Title: Oliver Goldsmith (1730 - 1774) Author: Oliver Goldsmith Narrator: Neville Jason Format: Unabridged Length: 8 mins Language: English Release date: 12-04-13 Publisher: Naxos AudioBooks Ratings: 2 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Classics, British Literature Publisher's Summary: This is an essay from the Favorite Essays collection. Here, in this unusual collection, are some of the greatest essays in Western literature. Witty, informative and imaginative, the topics vary from starvation in Ireland, fine China, the extension of railways in the Lake District, and the tombs in Westminster Abbey. A little like after-dinner monologues, they are passing thoughts expressed as journalism. Neville Jason reads with urbane clarity.

(Sren Vinterberg, Politiken) Members Reviews: Klasisk historie som er fint fortalt Would you consider the audio edition of Alice i eventyrland [Alice's Adventures in Wonderland] to be better than the print version? Jeg har ikke lst den bogen kun hrt denne lydbog og s set film udgaven af den. Tror ikke at jeg vil lse bogen da jeg ikke synes at historien var den bedste.Mske p et tidspunkt, synes ikke historien er den allerbedste, men den Would you be willing to try another book from Lewis Carroll? Why or why not? Jeg er ikke sikker p om jeg vil hre andet fra Lewis Carroll, mske hvis jeg fr anbefalet noget fra ham. What does Grete Tulinius bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? Jeg synes bogen blev lst rigtig godt op, med variation i stemmen, og indlevelse i bogen, s jeg fik lyst til at hre bogen frdig. Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting? Efter som bogen ikke er s voldsom lang, kan man sagtens hrer bogen i en krer. Oplsningen i bogen er som sagt ogs ganske fin. Jeg hrte den i to bidder, men det var mest p grund af jeg ikke havde tid til at hrer den hen p en gang. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/So-Lovers-Dream-Audiobook/B00CJHPGLA Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: So Lovers Dream Author: Alec Waugh Narrator: Alan Marriott Format: Unabridged Length: 12 hrs and 10 mins Language: English Release date: 04-30-13 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Classics, British Literature Publisher's Summary: This is not the only one of Alec Waugh's novels in which he has described the agonies of a couple who are desperately in love but cannot marry, for it is a situation that he has himself lived through. But it is in this novel that he has drawn most specifically upon experiences he has only alluded to in other books. His protagonist is Gordon Carruthers, who was also the hero of The Loom of Youth, that then-shocking and revelatory novel of public-school life. Now transformed into a globe-trotting writer, Carruthers falls in love with a beautiful American socialite, and eventually, while her husband is away, they begin an affair. For reasons that only gradually become clear, their situation seems to be a cul-de-sac, leading to a denouement that is both surprising and, paradoxically, the only possible one. So Lovers Dream is an autobiographical novel in more ways than one. Into it Waugh put not only his love affair but his home, his literary agent, the details of his own life. This makes it both an enthralling tale and a candid self-revelation, and as always in this writer's work, an affectionate evocation of a time he has lived through. Alec Waugh (1898-1981) was a British novelist born in London and educated at Sherborne Public School, Dorset. Waughs first novel, The Loom of Youth (1917), is a semi-autobiographical account of public-school life that caused some controversy at the time and led to his expulsion. Waugh was the only boy ever to be expelled from The Old Shirburnian Society. Despite setting this record, Waugh went on to become the successful author of over 50 works, and lived in many exotic places throughout his life which later became the settings for some of his texts. He was also a noted wine connoisseur and campaigned to make the cocktail party a regular feature of 1920s social life. bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (Alec Waugh) Tue, 30 Apr 2013 12:16:28 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/So-Lovers-Dream-Audiobook/B00CJHPGLA thebookvoice.com 12:10:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Writing 'at white heat', and in the flush of success after the publication of King Solomon's Mines, Haggard drew again on his knowledge of Africa and of ancient legends, but also on something deeper and more disturbing. To the Englishmen who journey through shipwreck, fever, and cannibals to her hidden realm, 'She' is the goal of a quest bequeathed to them two thousand years before; to Haggard's readers, 'She' is the embodiment of one of the most potent and ambivalent figures of Western mythology, a female who is both monstrous and desirable - and, without question, deadlier than the male. bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (Henry Rider Haggard) Thu, 19 Jul 2012 00:59:49 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/She-Audiobook/B008MOI24W thebookvoice.com 02:22:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Haggard was a born storyteller, and he never lets his overblown prose slow down the pace of this adventure. It is no wonder that this book has never been out of print in the last 124 years and has sold a reported 44 million copies. The plot involves three Englishmen who follow the clues written on an ancient piece of pottery to find a fabulous kingdom hidden in the interior of Africa, where a strange lost race is ruled over by "She-Who-Must-Be-Obeyed," a mercurial Queen with supernatural powers, including near-eternal life. The suspense and action rarely flag, and the story set the pattern for countless "lost world" and "lost race" stories that followed, most notably those of Edgar Rice Burroughs. A great read. One caveat: the $1.00 Kindle version has some typos, and the author's illustrations are missing. a classic tale of a Lost World In the style of the times, this is a tale of adventure passed off as truth by the narrator. Unique is that this is purportedly the first instance of the use of a lost civilization in science fiction and it carries many of the hallmarks that later authors shall employ. In particular, a remote civilization cut off from the world in a volcanic caldera. Also, in the style of the day, the characters oft wax philosophical, which can bog down the adventurous nature of the tale. But I find it something I like about early science fiction. good read of an old book Pros: it is very nice to be able to read a long out-of-print book without breaking the bank. the paper stock was a decent weight and the binding was adequate to not fall apart. Cons: the publisher has a caveat that the scanning used to create this publication is not perfect and typos were not corrected. very true - found several that slowed my reading, but were not critical to the plot of the book. did not find any noticible text missing. Book Review: this is a tale that i have wanted to read for some time, but have been unable to find a readable copy without getting into "collector" book proces. i found the writing very typical of the time and the characters complex. it was a good read and i am very glad to have had this opportunity. She Who Must Be Obeyed This is an old-fashioned adventure and treasure hunting tale told in archaic and proper British English. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Daniel-Deronda-Audiobook/B0089OKWJI Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Great Reading of Sadly Abridged Bbook Is there anything you would change about this book? This audiobook suffers from being abridged- at least as it has been here. Developments unprepared for and a bit disconnnected. Which scene did you most enjoy? Eleanor Bron is a great reader and her voice suits the text. The depiction of Jewry in 19th Century London is an unusual and fascinating aspect of the book. Any additional comments? My own fault for not noticing it was abridged. I was so keen to avoid the Nadia May narration I clicked too quickly. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Wilkie-Collins-Supernatural-Stories-Volume-2-Audiobook/B007UP7QLY Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: John Halifax, Gentleman: Volume Five Author: Dinah Craik Narrator: Peter Joyce Format: Unabridged Length: 3 hrs and 30 mins Language: English Release date: 06-10-11 Publisher: Assembled Stories Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Classics, British Literature Publisher's Summary: This is Volume Five of the greatest romantic narrative novel of the early 19th century. John Halifax, Gentleman, tells the story of an orphan boy whose first words in the story are Sir, I want work; may I earn a penny? By hard work, diligent study and an unshakeable faith in his God John attains wealth and happiness, despite much hardship and heartbreak throughout his life. The story chronicles the class movement of the time and gives us a remarkable description of social, political, and industrial change. Set in Gloucestershire in the heart of England and told by Phineas, his soul mate and lifelong friend, who observes John through all his glorious moments, self-doubt and resolution, the story is simple, uplifting and heroic. It is a detailed study of a man and his family that also presents the listener with a broad view of Britain during one of its most troubled times. A genuine classic, most entertaining and certainly a tale which lives up to the appellation epic in its conception and delivery, John Halifax, Gentleman was first published in 1856. Due to popular demand, it has never been out of print. This is the first unabridged recording of Dinah Craiks masterpiece. About Assembled Stories: Over the years the national press have reviewed Assembled Stories titles as "excellent", "remarkable", "entrancing", "superb", "magic for sure", "masterly", "wonderful", "a class act" and "a splendid example of audio at its best". Critic Reviews: This tremendous family story is set in a period of stormy social change from the 1770s to the 1830s.In his journey from penniless orphan to mill owning philanthropist, John is driven by duty, his love of God and humanity. The effects of war and bad harvests on the rural poor and corruption of parliamentary rotten boroughs [in one of which Halifax refuses to stand] are a small part of the wide ranging backdrop. Every hour is hugely rewarding-and what an accomplished reading. It conveys every nuance of emotion, making the listener feel richer for having lived through so much. (Observer) "Peter Joyce is the most remarkable one-man band in audiobook publishing. Joyce, an experienced actor, reads them all himself." (The Independent) "Heres such a neglected Victorian classic, a huge bestseller in its day, ready to be rediscovered through Joyces excellent reading."

Critic Reviews: This tremendous family story is set in a period of stormy social change from the 1770s to the 1830s.In his journey from penniless orphan to mill owning philanthropist, John is driven by duty, his love of God and humanity. The effects of war and bad harvests on the rural poor and corruption of parliamentary rotten boroughs [in one of which Halifax refuses to stand] are a small part of the wide ranging backdrop. Every hour is hugely rewarding-and what an accomplished reading. It conveys every nuance of emotion, making the listener feel richer for having lived through so much. (Observer) "Peter Joyce is the most remarkable one-man band in audiobook publishing. Joyce, an experienced actor, reads them all himself." (The Independent) "Heres such a neglected Victorian classic, a huge bestseller in its day, ready to be rediscovered through Joyces excellent reading."

Members Reviews: An American Classic I read it thirty years ago and it still holds up. An American classic. A Rather Bizzare Story I read this book on recommendation from a radio personality. The prose is well-written, but it is a rather bizarre story, which I rate as about a C. Hollywood of a bygone era A devastating critique of Hollywood - - - although written about a bygone era, it's an insight into the unfulfilled dreams and desires of Hollywood want-to-be's - - - is it relevant now? - - - maybe not in the naivete of the 30's or 40's - - - but the aspirations of those who want to challenge the film business. A Classic Tale of Hollywood I read Nathaniel West's THE DAY OF THE LOCUST many years ago and purchased it again to go back to the early tales of Hollywood and the struggles of its denizens in the depression era. The characters are so varied, and the descriptive writing is done beautifully. Once again, West has captured those "Hollywood dreams" and has brought them back to reality in tough times in Hollywood. The book should be read by ANYONE wanting to come to Los Angeles and to follow their path to the reality of Hollywood...or, Gollywood, as it really is "yesterday and today". Brilliant treatise on "the perils of Hollywood." Two Winners. I love both these short novels. I'd read them years ago and they seem even better to me now than they did then. Forced to pick between them, I guess I'd say, 'The Day of the Locust,' is the stronger of the two, but they are both astounding and I might, tomorrow, choose, 'Miss Lonelyhearts,' as the better. How tragic that West died so young as he was clearly a genius in the making. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Dr-Jekyll-and-Mr-Hyde-Audiobook/B0050OD0EO Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Love Charles Dickens and it was really a joy to ... Love Charles Dickens and it was really a joy to read. Hated to get to the end of the book. Felt like a friend. Great edition! This item took a very long time to arrive - two weeks longer than the deadline, although that is probably due to the problems we've been having with imported products here in Brazil. That said, the edition is absolutely lovely, the facsimile of the edition originally printed in 1937, and a lot lighter than you'd expect a book of this size (which is great if you carry your books around to read them on the tube like I do). A must have for all us book geeks. Four Stars Dickens, through and through. Picaresque classic Came back to the Pickwick Papers after 30 years -- a school assignment then, a pleasure read now -- and the things I enjoyed remained the same: Dickens' understated humor, his deliberately flowery descriptions, the unexpected pathos of the durance vile in the Fleet. But the more mature version of me is maybe better able to appreciate the wonderful characters created by Dickens, some of whom, such as Pickwick, have become archetypes. The serial nature of the original work, combined with the sometimes hurried circumstances of its creation, sometimes show through, but the story and characters hold up and are timeless despite the passage of nearly two centuries. While I have made it a Christmas tradition to read ... While I have made it a Christmas tradition to read A Christmas Carol every December, I have never read much of Dickens other work. I read this book intending to read through the rest of the body of his work. I won't be doing that after all. Perhaps my 21st century lifestyle is incompatible with the flowery, convoluted style and unending sentences of his work. That and the killing off of Nell and this deus ex machina way of dealing with Quilp left me cold. Sorry, Charlie. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Mary-Barton-Audiobook/B004UMT06O Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

This is the second work of hers I have read and I really enjoyed this one even better than North and South. She is a writer who though her books may be a little slow to begin, knows how to make you love her characters. They are all fully developed and important to her stories. She gives satisfactory endings to ask the strings of her stories though this area not always happy. I also like that her stories have over arching societal themes and that she shows both sides of issues balance. An excellent edition of this book. Excellent 19th century book This is an excellent book for people who enjoy 19th century English literature. The plot held my interest to the end. Mrs. Gaskell is an great writer, and the book flowed along smoothly. There are some religious overtones, but the book is never "preachy." This is also a good book for people who are interested in the Manchester-Liverpool area of England. Manchester's Heroic People Mary Burton is a treasure of 19 century literature. The characters possess integrity of moral purpose that provides them with a richness not hidden by their poverty in life. Truth, honesty,devotion, modesty, and responsibility are exemplified by rich and poor alike in this tale of love and honor.The author digs beneath the superficial to show crime and it's consequences, but also the reader learns what motives drive men and women to act...how the human heart reacts to injustice and often change their lives as a result. We KNOW Mary Burton and Jem; we ache for John Burton and Mr. Carson. We applaud Margaret's strength despite her blindness. We care about these people as we do for family. Excellent historical novel. Very engaging and good historical read. A bit hard to get into because of the sentence structure but grabs you quickly. Worth staying with it. I learned a lot about mid 1800 century English and what it took to endure life especially about women and mothers. Another good story by Gaskell. After reading " North and South", I was pleased to find another 19th Century novel by Elizabeth Gaskell. This one,too, focuses on the effects of industrialization on the factory owners as well as the working class. The characterization, as well as the details of daily life, bring the story alive. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/The-Hound-Of-The-Baskervilles-Audiobook/B004RQN82U Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: A laid-back reading I love Peter Egan's beautifully-modulated and elegant voice, and since there are very few of his recordings available on Audible I plumped for this title. In practice Egan was an odd choice for narrator, as it's strange to hear such a melodramatic tale told by an actor with such a wonderfully laid-back, gentle voice. There's not a huge amount of character acting going on either. If you like your melodrama full of blood and thunder, better look elsewhere. I enjoyed it to a degree but not because the story and narrator were well-matched. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Great-Expectations-Audiobook/B004UMS0HO Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

One of my co-workers encouraged me to read this since I have only seen the TV/Movie versions. It was a quick read and very enjoyable. Fortunately, the TV/Movie versions weren't too far off the mark. Regardless, there were facets of the story that you would only get through the book, which is why reading the book will always be my favorite option. BAH! HUMBUG!! "God bless Us, Every One" A Christmas Carol is a beloved Christmas favorite. Nothing says Christmas like favorite Christmas stories. This timeless tale has been told in many versions. Iâve seen the movie and play but Iâve never read the book. I thought it was about time to finally read this tale. The illustrations throughout the book were fun to look at. Not common to find illustrations in books today unless they are children stories. Lots of great quotes come from this story but the most famous is BAH! HUMBUG! followed by: "God bless Us, Every One!" Standalone As great to read vs as to watch as a production. We've enjoyed many kinds of productions of this classic Scrooge story. The original makes us 'rise to the occasion' - or at least gets us to mentally take the time to step back in that era. Life was so different, so the real factor is (I think) a little richer, than already assembled viewables. Emotional, and the older language adds some incentive to digging into the story. A must read! Dickens has always intimidated me. Somehow, I made my way through high school and college without having to read one of his novels. Finally, a few weeks before Christmas, I decided to give this a try when I learned it is relatively short. I figured if it took some work, at least it wouldn't take all that long. I'm sorry I waited so long. It was impossible for me to separate this from the many versions of A Christmas Carol I've seen over the years. I loved it. I enjoyed the glimpse into the time and place of the story. The story and theme are, of course, legendary. Don't be intimidated. This is a book everyone should read at least once. Classic I Know I have tried this one before and was distracted within the first five chapters but with the advise of a colleague I am going to attempt this one again. I am late 30's and sometimes have a tough time focusing for long spans of time unless the story is captivating from the get go, you have to appreciate writing for the sake of verb-age and description to get into this. So, because it is a classic and I think the classics should be read - I'll give it another go but not looking forward to it despite the wonderful reviews. Hated Pride and Prejudice too - just depends on personal taste I suppose.

Must Read Absolutely phenomenal book. The writing is beautiful and intelligent. The characters are very vivid but complex and the points made in this story are spot on and completely relevant in our society today. It is one of my favorite books and will definitely be enjoyed by anyone with keen observation and a lack of agreement with society's idolization of mediocrity. I got a good deal out of the book I got a good deal out of the book, I just didn't like the hyper-emotional hand-wringing that dominates a lot of the story (which seems to exist only to support the characters' emotional states). Perhaps I'm too left-brained. My gf wanted me to read this and I'm already taking heat for my take on it. Still, I did read it, and as I say, it has some very good takeaways, but just a bit slow for me. Interesting views on relationships This is a classic! The philosphical underpinnings of this book make it a must read for anyone interested in the dynamics of human relationships. If you don't want to read the book, watch the movie. They are both worthwhile experiences. It's fun to read these classics when you are well seasoned ... I did not understand it until I subsequently read The Rainbow. Since I am not a student in an English class I am just reading what I ignored while pursuing a different course of study.

Calificaciones: 4.5 de 5 de 2 votos Categorías: Classics, British Literature Resumen del editor: Oscar Wilde (1854-1900) nació en 1854, en Dublín. Hijo del cirujano William Wills-Wilde y de la escritora Joana Elgee. Oscar Wilde combinó sus estudios universitarios con viajes por Italia, Grecia, Estados Unidos y Francia, al tiempo que publicaba en varios periódicos y revistas sus primeros poemas. Fue excepcionalmente bien recibido en las universidades y centros culturales británicos y franceses. El éxito de Wilde se basaba en el ingenio punzante que derrochaba en sus obras, dedicadas casi siempre a fustigar las hipocresías de sus contemporáneos. Tuvo una enorme popularidad como dramaturgo, con obras como Salomé, o La importancia de llamarse Ernesto. Su éxito, sin embargo, se vio truncado en 1895 cuando el marqués de Queenberry inició una campaña de difamación en periódicos y revistas acusándole de homosexual. El 27 de mayo de 1895 Oscar Wilde fue condenado a dos años de prisión y trabajos forzados. A pesar de las numerosas peticiones de clemencia de toda Europa, el escritor fue obligado a cumplir por entero la pena. La sentencia supuso la pérdida de todo lo conseguido durante sus años de gloria. Cumplida la condena, emigró a París, donde vivió sus últimos años de vida, con nombre falso, entre penurias económicas y problemas de salud, hasta su muerte, el 30 de noviembre de 1900. El retrato de Dorian GrayEl retrato de Dorian Gray, es la única novela de Wilde, y su autoría le reportó feroces críticas desde sectores puritanos y conservadores debido a su tergiversación del tema de Fausto. En esta novela, Oscar Wilde indaga sobre el mito de la eterna juventud, al recrear el tema de un pacto diabólico para conservar la belleza y permanecer eternamente joven. Un pintor queda fascinado por la extraordinaria hermosura de Dorian, su joven modelo, que vive en plena era victoriana satisfaciendo todos sus deseos, sin límites ni prejuicios. El pintor declara que sería dichoso si Dorian pudiese permanecer para siempre exactamente como es. Este deseo se traduce en un pacto que lleva a Dorian a cometer todo tipo de atrocidades, hasta llegar al crimen. A medida que se desarrolla la novela y que el protagonista se sumerge en el vicio en contraposición con el desesperado anhelo de eterna juventud, se presiente un final terrible. El retrato de Dorian Gray es una extensa alegoría que sondea las profundidades del ser humano y cuya vigencia sorprende en cada nueva lectura de esta magistral obra.

I LOVE Jane Eyre, it's an amazing story... but MY GOD this dramatisation was as insane as Bertha Mason herself! I kept alternating between turning up the volume because the voices were so quiet to jumping in fright at characters shouting all of a sudden. Also, I know its harder to portray emotions through verbal storytelling alone but WOW could the voice acting be any worse? Sorry, but what a waste of time and money. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/The-Importance-of-Being-Earnest-Audiobook/B004GMNL5E Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Around the World in 80 Days Everyone knows the basic story, but reading the book was quite painful and not enjoyable for a middle schooler who chose it from the summer reading list. It's written in a stuffy, 19th century style, which is great if one enjoys such writing. As an adult, I love the stuff, but it really was hard to wade through the formal prose and starchy descriptions. I don't recommend modernizing it, although that would introduce it to a generation that will otherwise not make an effort. Accompanies the Video Trip Having seen this television series of Michael Palin's trip, this is a nice way to refresh the memory. I understand that the book follows the video series very closely. I intend to read it at some time. I got it for my late husband and he did enjoy reading it. Mr. Palin's observations of the world were very interesting. David Niven was a perfect choice. Wonderful book. It evoked my memories of the original movie I watched in younger days. It is also quite a lesson in changing perceptions AND realities. It was, after all, written 143 years ago, and the world has changed a bit. Now you can circumnavigate the globe without even an engine (solar airplane), but between Homeland Security, customs officials everywhere, infrastructure maintenance failures and other modern inconveniences, Mr. Fogg's record might beat yours if you attempted the same route. I wonder if TripAdvisor could set me up . . . Good translation and nice themes One of the more simple works of Verne in my opinion. Good translation and nice themes. The characters themselves didn't attract me a great deal. Fine quality book and a fairly easy read. I Always Love This One I give it five stars. It's always a favorite. I read it with my eleven year old in our homeschool. She said, "It's not my favorite book, but it's okay." I, on the other hand, love the beauty behind the message of Mr. Fogg's journey. It would seem as though there really are some things in life that mean more than glory and riches. ;) https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/El-agente-secreto-I-The-Secret-Agent-I-Audiobook/B0049AYHZQ Escuche este audio libro completo gratis en https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> Título: El agente secreto I [The Secret Agent I] Autor: Joseph Conrad Narrador: Ana Begoña Eguileor Formato: Unabridged Duración: 3 hrs and 33 mins Idioma: Español Fecha de publicación: 10-26-10 Editor: NEAR, S.A. Categorías: Classics, British Literature Resumen del editor: Joseph Conrad (1857-1924) Novelista británico de origen polaco nació en Berdichev, (actualmente en Ucrania) en 1857.Quedó huérfano a los 12 años, y a los 16 abandonó la Polonia ocupada por los rusos y se trasladó a Marsella. Durante los siguientes cuatro años navegó en barcos mercantes franceses, posteriormente se puso al servicio de la Marina mercante inglesa y obtuvo la nacionalidad británica. La vida en el mar y en puertos extranjeros constituye el telón de fondo de casi todos sus relatos, pero su obsesión fundamental fue la condición humana y la lucha del individuo entre el bien y el mal. Conrad murió en Bishopsbourne, cerca de Canterbury, en 1924. Influyó de manera decisiva en la novela moderna y es considerado como uno de los grandes escritores modernos en lengua inglesa, cuya obra explora la vulnerabilidad y la inestabilidad moral del ser humano. El agente secreto - En 1906 un acontecimiento real, el intento de volar el Observatorio de Greenwich por parte de un anarquista llamado Martial Bourdin, inspiró a Joseph Conrad el tema de un relato magistral. Sobre el telón de fondo del Londres de comienzos de siglo, una ciudad monstruosa e indiferente, se desarrolla la historia de un fallido atentado que revela el turbio entramado formado por el terrorismo internacional, la acción de la policía y la diplomacia deshonesta. Una profunda ironía que raya en comicidad impregna este relato intenso y armónico, imprevisiblemente dominado por una figura femenina, en un comienzo marginal, a quien una pasión casi maternal conduce a la locura y la desesperación.

Categorías: Classics, British Literature Resumen del editor: Joseph Conrad (1857-1924) Novelista británico de origen polaco nació en Berdichev, (actualmente en Ucrania) en 1857.Quedó huérfano a los 12 años, y a los 16 abandonó la Polonia ocupada por los rusos y se trasladó a Marsella. Durante los siguientes cuatro años navegó en barcos mercantes franceses, posteriormente se puso al servicio de la Marina mercante inglesa y obtuvo la nacionalidad británica. La vida en el mar y en puertos extranjeros constituye el telón de fondo de casi todos sus relatos, pero su obsesión fundamental fue la condición humana y la lucha del individuo entre el bien y el mal. Conrad murió en Bishopsbourne, cerca de Canterbury, en 1924. Influyó de manera decisiva en la novela moderna y es considerado como uno de los grandes escritores modernos en lengua inglesa, cuya obra explora la vulnerabilidad y la inestabilidad moral del ser humano. El agente secreto - En 1906 un acontecimiento real, el intento de volar el Observatorio de Greenwich por parte de un anarquista llamado Martial Bourdin, inspiró a Joseph Conrad el tema de un relato magistral. Sobre el telón de fondo del Londres de comienzos de siglo, una ciudad monstruosa e indiferente, se desarrolla la historia de un fallido atentado que revela el turbio entramado formado por el terrorismo internacional, la acción de la policía y la diplomacia deshonesta. Una profunda ironía que raya en comicidad impregna este relato intenso y armónico, imprevisiblemente dominado por una figura femenina, en un comienzo marginal, a quien una pasión casi maternal conduce a la locura y la desesperación.

Opiniones de los miembros: Lamentable Edicion Tengo la sensación que este libro merece una mejor calificación, pero lamentablemente su pésima edición me impidió apreciarlo. Efectivamente, a lo largo de todo el libro aparecen 2 frases intercaladas en cualquier parte que dificultan la comprensión y distraen la lectura. Las frases son: ÂJoseph Conrad  y ÂEl agente secreto Una lástima!!!! La trama parece entretenida, pero no he podido leerlo ... La trama parece entretenida, pero no he podido leerlo completo porque me molesta terriblemente la lectura que el libro venga con fallas de formato. Excelente novela peroâ Excelente novela. Lastima los errores en el formato que hacen ilegible la obra por momentos.

Members Reviews: OSCAR WOULD BE WILD ABOUT THIS! What disappointed you about The Picture of Dorian Gray? This is an atrocious, even blasphemous rendition of Wilde's book! I should have taken note of the length before I bought it - 58 minutes?! How could such a wonderful book be abridged to this extent and still make sense? The simple answer is - it can't. There is no chance to get to know any of the characters - not even the titular one - and the majority of the background narrative has been deleted. The narration is terrible - there is barely any difference in the characters' 'voices', and even in the sparse narrative parts it doesn't even sound like Martin Shaw. Don't bother with this one - get the unabridges version. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Cricket-A-Sport-in-Verse-Audiobook/B003YM0QWI Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

It's the Austen least likely to make you swoon (did I just use the word 'swoon'?! I really have been reading too many classics lately!), but in many ways I think Lady Susan features Jane Austen at her most purely clever, sharp and satirical. As others have noted, the book takes place entirely in the form of letters that various characters exchange, but rest assured that there's still a lot of Austen's trademark dialogue rather than just summaries of various events. A lot of the humor and cleverness comes from seeing how some of the same people and events are perceived differently by various characters, and how Lady Susan's rosy view of herself differs so radically from the increasingly clear reality of who she is. This isn't just a series of meandering musings; there's an actual narrative and, for me, a surprisingly satisfying resolution to it. The conflicts and suspense revolve around who (if anyone!) a few of the characters will end up marrying, the fate of Susan's miserable daughter, and which of Lady Susan's schemes to manipulate those around her will succeed. If you want to fall in love with Austen's more likable, admirable characters and their sigh-worthy romances, this is definitely not the Austen I'd recommend! If, however, you want to read some of the most razor sharp, clever wit and satire that Austen ever wrote, I can't recommend this one highly enough. Plus, the current $0.00 price tag makes this an immensely worthwhile purchase :) Jane Austen in full satire mode, lets us read the private correspondence of the guilty players The epistolary novel is a very constraining and therefore challenge for the writer. In Jane Austinâs Lady Susan Ms Austen dishes the dirt from the inside as Lady Susan attempts to engage her daughter to a suitor who does not suit and plans a love affair with a married man and a separate advantageous marriage. The letters fly back and forth between her allies, enemies and the occasional more or less innocent third parties. There may be enough plot for a longer story but Ms Austen brings it to a swift end and nails it shut by abandoning the letter only format tying up her loose ends in a few pages of conventional narrative. The tone throughout is one more in line with British stage farce and being short remains fun with just a slight tendency to drag as the joke begins to wear. In an attempt to give this satire some weight; It made me think of the 100 year older Dangerous Liaisons. The earlier book has a more convoluted plot and a more serious ending, but it is tainted with what reads to modern eyes as close to child abuse and worse. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Lord-Jim-Audiobook/B003MSAIKE Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: Tom Jones Subtitle: The History of Tom Jones, a Foundling Author: Henry Fielding Narrator: Tom Conway Format: Abridged Length: 53 mins Language: English Release date: 05-12-10 Publisher: Saland Publishing Genres: Classics, British Literature Publisher's Summary: The History of Tom Jones, a Foundling, often known simply as Tom Jones, is a comic novel by the English playwright and novelist Henry Fielding. First published on 28 February 1749, Tom Jones is among the earliest English prose works describable as a novel. Tom Jones is a foundling discovered on the property of a very kind, wealthy landowner, Squire Allworthy, in Somerset in England's West Country. Tom grows into a vigorous and lusty, yet honest and kind-hearted, youth. He develops affection for his neighbour's daughter, Sophia Western. On one hand, their love reflects the romantic comedy genre that was popular in 18th-century Britain. However, Tom's status as a bastard causes Sophia's father and Allworthy to oppose their love; this criticism of class friction in society acted as a biting social commentary. The inclusion of prostitution and sexual promiscuity in the plot was also original for its time, and also acted as the foundation for criticism of the book's "lowness." bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (Henry Fielding) Wed, 12 May 2010 17:06:35 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Tom-Jones-Audiobook/B003LYZLBK thebookvoice.com 00:53:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Excellent and entertaining 314. The History of Tom Jones: a foundling by Henry Fielding (Novel-Audible/E Book-Fiction) 5* I read along with the Audible of the novel which I found a highly delightful and entertaining experience. The narrator, Bill Homewood, who performed the audio version of the work was excellent doing the various characters as well as the invisible narrator (author) of the story. The Synopsis is as follows: A foundling of mysterious parentage brought up by Mr. Allworthy on his country estate, Tom Jones is deeply in love with the seemingly unattainable Sophia Western, the beautiful daughter of the neighboring squireâthough he sometimes succumbs to the charms of the local girls. When Tom is banished to make his own fortune and Sophia follows him to London to escape an arranged marriage, the adventure begins. A vivid Hogarthian panorama of eighteenth-century life, spiced with danger and intrigue, bawdy exuberance and good-natured authorial interjections, Tom Jones is one of the greatest and most ambitious comic novels in English literature. It is rather brilliant, and there is no lack of shenanigans as we follow Jones through his history and the reader never knows when and where the author will abruptly go off on a tangent, told in a most eloquent manner, end with a flourish and no doubt tossed his quill down and took a bow. I am either taken in by some farce or thoroughly enchanted by this author. As Fielding is rather the loquacious writer this read comes in Audible time at almost 38 hours or roughly 1,000 pages but worth every minute spent on it. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Eighteenth-Century-Comedy-Audiobook/B0036HZY5U Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: The Invisible Man Author: H. G. Wells Narrator: Jim Killavey Format: Unabridged Length: 4 hrs and 53 mins Language: English Release date: 01-07-10 Publisher: Jimcin Recordings Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 10 votes Genres: Classics, British Literature Publisher's Summary: In this classic science fiction novel, a young chemist discovers how to make himself invisible and seeks the aid of a fellow scientist in creating a "reign of terror." He finds, however, that he cannot become visible again and that his invisibility comes at a high price. Editorial Reviews: H. G. Wells tale of a corrupt scientists "reign of terror" explores one of the human psyches darker motives - the desire to act as one pleases without restraint or threat of punishment. In stark, foreboding tones, performer Jim Killavey captures the wanton arrogance of Wells invisible anti-hero, Griffin, and the oppressive paranoid fear that haunts the English village of Iping, cowering under threat of an undetectable menace. Wells formative classic lays thematic foundations that still resonate throughout science fiction: dystopian future shock, the destruction of community and tradition at the hands of technology, and the hubristic pursuit of knowledge are all scrutinized. Nevertheless, Griffins tragedy is of his own making, as he neglects the humanistic aspirations belying his research and falls prey to powers corrupting influence. bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (H. G.

Wells tale of a corrupt scientists "reign of terror" explores one of the human psyches darker motives - the desire to act as one pleases without restraint or threat of punishment. In stark, foreboding tones, performer Jim Killavey captures the wanton arrogance of Wells invisible anti-hero, Griffin, and the oppressive paranoid fear that haunts the English village of Iping, cowering under threat of an undetectable menace. Wells formative classic lays thematic foundations that still resonate throughout science fiction: dystopian future shock, the destruction of community and tradition at the hands of technology, and the hubristic pursuit of knowledge are all scrutinized. Nevertheless, Griffins tragedy is of his own making, as he neglects the humanistic aspirations belying his research and falls prey to powers corrupting influence.

Members Reviews: Accessible and entertaining classic The Invisible Man is one of those classics that has been on my TBR for ages, always getting posponed to read other titles instead. But after a mention that this classic was actually quite entertaining, I decided to finally pick it up. And they were right, because I actually found myself having a lot of fun while readingÂThe Invisible Man. Not only is the prose quite easy to read, but the plot itself is both intriguing and entertaining as things start escalating. The character development has been really well done and shows the effects being invisible can have on a man... If you are looking for an accessible and entertaining classic to read,ÂThe Invisible Man is the choice for you. Insightful Read this book for an English class and I thought it was very insightful. It gave very convincing theories on human nature and what possibly could lay ahead of us in the future. to me this book gave the illusion of mystery by not giving some people names. This mystery exemplified the imagery the time travler gave about the future. the ending heightened the mystery seven fold. I was left wanting more, wanting to know more, and wanting to go back to the future with the time traveler. Made me really think about how the time travelers theories are thought out and could potentially actually happen. Definitely a thought invoking read A Great Old War!! This is a good old fashioned yarn. I read the book through in one or two sittings. HG created a sense of menace and despair through the book, which I loved. His descriptions were evocative of the times, and I could almost visualize the destruction taking place, as the book weaved along. The writing is, for our times, old fashioned, yet timeless. The almost forgotten craft of writing is something that was displayed through the book. I lost the part where the Martians were 'destroyed'. It would have been really nice to have had a nice description of this, but you can't have everything in life! If you want a good book to read by the fireside, then this is one I can recommend. Classic Still Has the Attraction and Impact of A Fresh Story! The Time Machine, like all of H.G. Well's works, are classics. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Villette-Audiobook/B0036GMFTY Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Around the World in 80 Days Everyone knows the basic story, but reading the book was quite painful and not enjoyable for a middle schooler who chose it from the summer reading list. It's written in a stuffy, 19th century style, which is great if one enjoys such writing. As an adult, I love the stuff, but it really was hard to wade through the formal prose and starchy descriptions. I don't recommend modernizing it, although that would introduce it to a generation that will otherwise not make an effort. Accompanies the Video Trip Having seen this television series of Michael Palin's trip, this is a nice way to refresh the memory. I understand that the book follows the video series very closely. I intend to read it at some time. I got it for my late husband and he did enjoy reading it. Mr. Palin's observations of the world were very interesting. David Niven was a perfect choice. Wonderful book. It evoked my memories of the original movie I watched in younger days. It is also quite a lesson in changing perceptions AND realities. It was, after all, written 143 years ago, and the world has changed a bit. Now you can circumnavigate the globe without even an engine (solar airplane), but between Homeland Security, customs officials everywhere, infrastructure maintenance failures and other modern inconveniences, Mr. Fogg's record might beat yours if you attempted the same route. I wonder if TripAdvisor could set me up . . . Good translation and nice themes One of the more simple works of Verne in my opinion. Good translation and nice themes. The characters themselves didn't attract me a great deal. Fine quality book and a fairly easy read. I Always Love This One I give it five stars. It's always a favorite. I read it with my eleven year old in our homeschool. She said, "It's not my favorite book, but it's okay." I, on the other hand, love the beauty behind the message of Mr. Fogg's journey. It would seem as though there really are some things in life that mean more than glory and riches. ;) https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/The-Diamond-Maker-Audiobook/B002V8LDW8 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Very pretty, but you must not call it Beowulf There is some pleasure to be had from this recording: I always enjoy listening to Flo Gibson, and you could make a reasonable argument that the comfortable rhyme employed by this translation substitutes for the less familiar technical aspects of Old English poetry. But ultimately it just doesn't do a very good job capturing the effect of the poem. It's less an heroic song than a winter's tale, told around the fire to children. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/The-Invisible-Man-Audiobook/B002V1LAXW Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Accessible and entertaining classic The Invisible Man is one of those classics that has been on my TBR for ages, always getting posponed to read other titles instead. But after a mention that this classic was actually quite entertaining, I decided to finally pick it up. And they were right, because I actually found myself having a lot of fun while readingÂThe Invisible Man. Not only is the prose quite easy to read, but the plot itself is both intriguing and entertaining as things start escalating. The character development has been really well done and shows the effects being invisible can have on a man... If you are looking for an accessible and entertaining classic to read,ÂThe Invisible Man is the choice for you. Insightful Read this book for an English class and I thought it was very insightful. It gave very convincing theories on human nature and what possibly could lay ahead of us in the future. to me this book gave the illusion of mystery by not giving some people names. This mystery exemplified the imagery the time travler gave about the future. the ending heightened the mystery seven fold. I was left wanting more, wanting to know more, and wanting to go back to the future with the time traveler. Made me really think about how the time travelers theories are thought out and could potentially actually happen. Definitely a thought invoking read A Great Old War!! This is a good old fashioned yarn. I read the book through in one or two sittings. HG created a sense of menace and despair through the book, which I loved. His descriptions were evocative of the times, and I could almost visualize the destruction taking place, as the book weaved along. The writing is, for our times, old fashioned, yet timeless. The almost forgotten craft of writing is something that was displayed through the book. I lost the part where the Martians were 'destroyed'. It would have been really nice to have had a nice description of this, but you can't have everything in life! If you want a good book to read by the fireside, then this is one I can recommend. Classic Still Has the Attraction and Impact of A Fresh Story! The Time Machine, like all of H.G. Well's works, are classics. However, they still are enjoyable even after the umpteenth reading! I like the old (not the newer) version of the movie as well. This is a Victrorian story, keep it Victorian! Trying to update it in the newer movie was doomed to failure. The raw adventure into unknown territory for its time was just short of fantastic. H.G. Wells and Jules Verne cannot come too highly recommended for reading again and again. Like a true classic! You can almost imagine yourself as being there in the middle of the story's I love these two other and have since my youth and always will. I have their complete works in more than one form. Reading all of their stories will not harm anybody! Young and Optimistic I doubt I can do justice to this classic, but I thought I'd just add a line or two. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/What-Every-Woman-Knows-Audiobook/B002V0QIJE Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Assigned text for Children's LIT class, thoroughly enjoyed it. Five Stars Arrived in very good condition. A very great playwright - Hitchcock wanted to film MARY ROSE all ... A very great playwright - Hitchcock wanted to film MARY ROSE all his life but could never get the project going. Five Stars I enjoy reading the story as Barry first wrote it! Good plays for older children I like the play of Peter Pan better than the story. It reads more like it's meant for children, whereas the novel is very adult to my mind. I also enjoyed the Admirable Crighton. Entertaining but also thought-provoking. A great set of plays for young-adult literature study. Thanks to Van Damme Academy for the recommendation of Admirable Crighton as a play with a clear plot-theme. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Hard-Times-Audiobook/B002V0QCGS Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Dickens - Always a Master As some reviewers have pointed out, this is not the best work Dickens has produced. For me that merely means that it is a very good piece of literature rather than a superb one. It could have profited from expanded examination of various social, cultural, political and economical themes of the day that were touched upon only lightly, but he did a fine job of treating those issues he chose to examine. That is enough for me to recommend the book heartly to all as a short and enjoyable read with enough involvement with issues that still resonate today to keep you happily interested. This Kindle edition is excellent. Lovely tale Someone's characterization is remarkable as always.The characters are people like we meet every day and the story speaks to your heart. Class Conflict Perhaps not the "typical" Dickens, if there is such a thing, but a fascinating look at the conflict between classes in Victorian England. Five Stars so easy to purchase required reading books for my kids on Amazon!

Title: The Ballad of Reading Gaol Author: Oscar Wilde, Frank Harris Narrator: Denis Daly Format: Unabridged Length: 33 mins Language: English Release date: 11-30-17 Publisher: Spoken Realms Genres: Classics, British Literature Publisher's Summary: Between 1895 and 1897 Oscar Wilde served a prison sentence for offences "of gross indecency". Most of this time was spent at Reading Gaol, where Wilde encountered another prisoner, Harles Thomas Wooldridge, a trooper in the Royal Horse Guards, who had been sentenced to death for the murder of his wife. Wooldrige was hanged at the gaol on 7th July, 1896. Wilde wrote the poem in France in 1897 after his release from prison. The first published version identified the author only as C.3.3, the name allocated to Wilde as a prisoner. The poem is a long reflection on the inequity and ineffectiveness of statutory punishment and the redeeming power of the Christian message of forgiveness. In his foreword, Frank Harris wrote: I venture to repeat here what I have said in various ways for nearly twenty years now, that Oscar Wilde's condemnation of prisons and punishment must lead directly to their abolition.

I was originally interested in this because I had read The Picture of Dorian Gray, and afterwards I had looked up Oscar Wilde. I had found that this verse: And alien tears will fill for him Pity's long-broken urn, For his mourners will be outcast men, And outcasts always mourn. is on his grave from the Ballad of Reading Gaol, and that's why I read it. Instead of being only about his imprisonment, I got a lot of fanciful poems that were a little superfluous. I thought the best poem in the book was the actual Ballad of Reading Gaol. It was vivid and accessible, unlike the heavy poems with all the mythology references. (I even like mythology!) Anyway, took me awhile to get through this, even though it's pretty short. Great writing, but I only liked it I am biased, I love Wilde-- he can be a touch over the op (:D), but he's never dull. This is a long poem... or series of poems etched~stitched~crocheted together (at least in my mind). Mostly 1st person, but other forms are used yet reverts back to author's eyes view. I like to try to put them together in a longer narrative, even if that isn't the way the author intended them... because that is just something I like to do. The Ballard of Reading Gaol There was no doubt that Mr. Wilde is a master of the poetic word. All of his poetry that was written before he went to gaol was full of flowers, Gods and Goddesses and idyllic meadows. I was quite breathless from all that tulip tripping but I'm glad I sloughed on through to "Reading". This is by far Oscars most worthy poem. He perfectly caught the helpless cadence of men trapped in their own crime and punishment. I felt this unhappy man's plight like it were my own. Yes, Oscar, we do kill the ones we love. You also killed yourself but in the process created your most worthy words. ?Rating a classic of literature? This is a classic. It is free. It was written by an acknowledged master. How very late-20th Century egocentrism to be asked to RATE something which has been a dip-and-taste book for decades. I'm a writer, I loved it. I don't give a damn about sexual proclivity, but you may turn up your nose because of the author, no matter the literary merit. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/The-Cuckoo-Clock-Audiobook/B0746SXL1T Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Probably best if you read it at the right age I can see people having a sentimental attachment to this book if they read it at the right age in childhood. It is sweet, magical, and has little "lessons" to learn. But as an adult reading this for the first time it just feels like a poor man's Alice in Wonderland. It also reminds me a bit of Five Children and It (another "lessons" story), but again I liked Five Children more. That isn't to say this isn't readable, but really I'd only tell a friend to read it if they are looking for a nice little story for their children. Childhood's First Memory This was the first book I truly remember reading, and then reading again, as a child. My 7-year old daughter has started the book now, and seems to love it too. Great details for the imagination and just enough excitement to keep you coming back. Cuckoos are real! Great Kids story about how a little girl finds a needed friend and some helpful advice all with the aid of the Cuckoo. Fabulous Book! This book was read to me as a child and I loved (LOVED) it! I spent years - decades actually - trying to find it again. Finally found it and it was as marvelous as an adult as it was as a child. It is a real treasure! Three Stars loved this book as a child--now it seems nit very imaginative. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/El-Principe-Feliz-The-Happy-Prince-Audiobook/B0747VDFS4 Escuche este audio libro completo gratis en https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> Título: El Príncipe Felíz [The Happy Prince] Autor: Oscar Wilde Narrador: Staff Audiolibros Colección Formato: Abridged Duración: 32 mins Idioma: Español Fecha de publicación: 07-25-17 Editor: Audiolibros Colección Categorías: Classics, British Literature Resumen del editor: La estatua del Príncipe Feliz estaba cubierta por hojas de oro, sus ojos eran dos zafiros, y tenía un rubí en el puño de su espada.

One of Wilde's magical morality tales. Members Reviews: Lovely, bittersweet, and nostalgic I had an audio book of The Happy Prince when I was a child, which id what made me look for this book now. Mind you, this story is slightly different than the one I listened to in my youth(the one I had didn't end on a religious note, to be sure), but I still enjoyed it. The addition of several other selfless tales of love were a delightful surprise (I suppose I didn't read the description too carefully). These stories are beautiful and bittersweet, descriptions of selfless love given without expectation of reciprocation. Enjoy and share with the young. An Entirely Different Side of Oscar Wilde This collection - one of thousands of worthwhile 'freebies' available for Kindle - offers a side of Oscar Wilde unknown to those who've only experienced his witty, cynical plays. These 'fairy tales' are gentle, moralistic, and only sometimes sardonic. I downloaded it in order to have my favorite of Wilde's short stories, "The Selfish Giant", which blends children's fantasy with Christian iconography in a charming, emotionally affecting way. Now I've read them all and I'm glad I have the set. This also led me to download another freebie, "Lord Arthur Savile's Crime", also recommended. Heartbreaking Tales of Magic and Life These stories are beautifully written (of course!) and enchanting for little ones. Some are more accessible than others (for example The Remarkable Rocket went a little above my five year old's head, while they could relate very well to The Happy Prince and The Selfish Giant). The stories do raise some potentially heavy topics for children (for example death, sacrifice, God, poverty...) so I think it's good to be prepared for questions afterwards, as you might end up talking about the stories with your children long after they have finished. Oscar Wilde's story of the HAPPY Prince is a timeless story for both young and ... Oscar Wilde's story of the HAPPY Prince is a timeless story for both young and old as it defines greatness as one who cares for others more than self - and sacrificing, even unto death for the good of others. Wilde sums up what inspires one to act in the behalf of others, is one who has a loving, caring, and humble heart whether that heart is the prince of the sparrow. It is the 'heart' of the prince that remains when his battered and eye sore statue is torn down and melted, Good moral tales! These are moral tales of selflessness and selfishness. I was very touched by each of them and still feel a little choked up just thinking about most of them. They would be good for everyone to read as older children or adults, but I think might be too sad for young children. It's a very quick read with a big impact - at least on me! https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/My-Recollections-Audiobook/B06Y8XJJ6J Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: Silas Marner Author: George Eliot Narrator: Stephanie Beacham Format: Unabridged Length: 6 hrs and 33 mins Language: English Release date: 12-05-16 Publisher: Phoenix Books Genres: Classics, British Literature Publisher's Summary: Falsely accused of a crime and betrayed by his closest friend, the weaver Silas Marner has been hoarding his earnings for 15 years. Distanced from his religious community, he has devoted himself to his work and taken pleasure only in counting his coins. Then in a single day, his gold is stolen and a lovely child appears on his doorstep. As he changes his life to meet the irresistible needs of the child, Marner accepts that the loss of the gold was a necessary exchange for the child. A living, shining treasure replaces his hollow material wealth, reawakening his humanity and helping him to rediscover a place among his fellow man. Many years later, when circumstances reveal the now-grown child's true identity, the strength of the bond that has flourished between her and the old man proves stronger that the attractions of wealth.

The synopsis was completely misleading as it implied there was other short stories contained within. I was already familiar with Dracula's Guest being the missing first chapter of the novel Dracula as I owned a short story anthology of other "chilling tales" that contained it when I was a teenager. That book has long since disappeared, so I'm happy to have the story again. I'm very disappointed that the only other things contained within were attempts to get me to purchase sets of x number of stories you should read before you die. Um they're free on Amazon individually. I already own most of them. So glad I didn't pay for this one! Must-read for Stoker fans Dracula being one of my favorite books, I was thrilled to find this collection of Bram Stoker's short stories. I enjoy horror writers who can provoke old-fashioned fright without relying too heavily on graphic details; while those details have a place, too many of them dampen a story. I was hoping that this collection would be as skillfully crafted as Dracula; I'm happy to say that this anthology mostly lived up to my expectations. While there's plenty of ghoulish tension throughout the book, these stories also provide moral lessons, cautionary tales, some hair-raising plot twists, and even a few happy anecdotes that keep the collection from feeling monolithic. Disclaimer: I tried to keep the "spoilers" in this review to a minimum - that is, I did not include any details that you would not read within the first half of the stories. Read on if you want more information about each individual tale; otherwise, suffice it to say that fans of gothic horror writing will probably find this collection very enjoyable and worth a read. "Dracula's Guest": A headstrong stranger faces danger when he does not heed the advice of the locals. I was glad I knew Dracula as well as I do when I started reading this selection because Stoker draws a lot of parallels to the opening scenes of his novel (a carriage ride, mountainous terrain, wolves, baleful weather, the dangers of Walpurgis Nacht), which made the reading experience feel rich and familiar. "The Judge's House": A young man stays in a house with an unpleasant, angry past, much to the chagrin of the surrounding townsfolk. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/The-Adventures-of-Sherlock-Holmes-HCR104fm-Edition-Audiobook/B01D0IAIIC Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: grandfather cloks and immortality short essay on temperamental grandfather clocks with some sober reflections about time and eternity. a little gem of an essay and very funny to boot. Very short I went on a Jerome Jerome kick and decided to read everything he wrote, in no particular order. I don't recommend this practice, because after a few you realize that it's all a blur! And now I have trouble distinguishing this title from the rest. But I can say that they are all clever, witty and outdated in a fun way (learn something about "olden" times - and that people and their cares have been the same for centuries). As the author ages his circumstances change (marriage, kids, etc.), so it would have helped to know their chronological order and follow it before I started the endeavor. This one is very short, and clever but so outdated that it's hard to relate to. Not what was expected. Seem to loose material in the download. Can not follow easily when book refers to illistrations not accompanied with writings. Not as expected This book is not what I expected! https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/The-Chamber-of-Doom-Audiobook/B01ATJ22ZW Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

It was there that he wrote a series of horror stories for the entertainment of eight boys who attended the abbey. In the foreword of this collection, Wintle explains that the stories were originally told on Sunday nights while "crouching over a wood fire on a wind-swept island off the Western shore."

Title: Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde Author: R. L. Stevenson Narrator: Richard E. Grant Format: Unabridged Length: 3 hrs and 6 mins Language: English Release date: 11-19-15 Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers Limited Genres: Classics, British Literature Publisher's Summary: The latest in a new series of classic detective stories from the vaults of HarperCollins is a reissue of one of literature's most audacious and thought-provoking novels of murder and intrigue, performed by Richard E. Grant. Includes John Inglisham's foreword from the original Detective Story Club edition. The Detective Story Club, launched by Collins in 1929, was a clearinghouse for the best and most ingenious crime stories of the age, chosen by a select committee of experts. Now, almost 90 years later, these books are the classics of the Golden Age, republished at last with the same popular cover designs that appealed to their original readers. Originally published in 1886 as Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, Robert Louis Stevenson's book had been propelled to massive success following a favourable review in The Times and by 1901 had sold a quarter of a million copies. This is how the Detective Club described the book: "In addition to being one of the most amazing crime stories ever written, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is probably the most remarkable of all the writings of Robert Louis Stevenson. It would be unfair to the reader to give away the secret of this thriller. Suffice it to say that every page grips and the unforgettable portrait of a mast criminal takes shape until the sensational climax is reached, a climax of dramatic intensity, without equal in the realm of detective fiction. If one wished to append a moral to this crime fantasy it might well be this: 'The self you choose today, and not the self you chose yesterday, is the fate of tomorrow.'"

Something about this reading quickly becomes irritating and unengaging. The Holm's reading has much better clarity and expression in the speech. GCSE LIFE SAVER This is one of the books we had to read for enligh GCSE , I relised 2 weeks before that I hadn't read any of it ! I brought the audio version in a bid to rember it and it worked like a dream ! Really easy to listen and the whole books in an hour and a half . Not the most exciting story granted but for school use I would reccomend the audio version 100%. Beyond Exceptional Beyond Exceptional. Richard E Grant is a master narrator. Thoroughly enjoyable and addictive listening.

Title: Ett eget rum [A Friendly Place] Author: Virginia Woolf Narrator: Elin Abelin Format: Unabridged Length: 5 hrs and 10 mins Language: English Release date: 10-16-15 Publisher: Viatone Genres: Classics, British Literature Publisher's Summary: Virginia Woolfs essä Ett eget rum kom till p grund av tv föreläsningar 1928 om kvinnor och litteratur och om den kvinnliga konstnärens möjlighet att ta plats i det dominerande manssamhället. Det krävs att "en kvinna mste ha pengar och eget rum, om hon skall kunna skriva romaner". Boken fick med sina tankar om kvinnan som självständig individ, med eget arbete och ekonomiskt oberoende, en banbrytande betydelse för kvinnofrigörelsen, och är fortfarande i dag ett centralt verk inom feminism och den feministiska litteraturkritiken. Tankarna framförs med humor, vrede, ironi och skarpsinne under vandringar med betraktelse av naturen och samhället, besök och middagar, där en historisk genomgng av kvinnliga författare blandas med fiktiva föreställningar. Ett eget rum är en av Virginia Woolfs mest betydande verk, men ocks en av de mest lättillgängliga och populäraste. Please note: This audiobook is in Swedish.

Tankarna framförs med humor, vrede, ironi och skarpsinne under vandringar med betraktelse av naturen och samhället, besök och middagar, där en historisk genomgng av kvinnliga författare blandas med fiktiva föreställningar. Ett eget rum är en av Virginia Woolfs mest betydande verk, men ocks en av de mest lättillgängliga och populäraste. Please note: This audiobook is in Swedish. Critic Reviews: "I det museum som litteraturhistorien utgör har Virginia Woolf verkligen ftt sig inrättat ett eget rum Joyce fr nöja sig med att dela rum med T.S. Eliot."

Title: The Grell Mystery Author: Frank Froest Narrator: David Bauckham Format: Unabridged Length: 10 hrs and 14 mins Language: English Release date: 10-22-15 Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers Limited Genres: Classics, British Literature Publisher's Summary: The latest in a new series of classic detective stories from the vaults of HarperCollins involves the murder of a notorious criminal in the home of a famous millionaire. But there are no clues, no evidence. The police are convinced that someone may have just committed the perfect crime. The Detective Story Club, launched by Collins in 1929, was a clearinghouse for the best and most ingenious crime stories of the age, chosen by a select committee of experts. Now, almost 90 years later, these books are the classics of the Golden Age, republished at last with the same popular cover designs that appealed to their original readers. The Grell Mystery was first published in 1913 and selected as one of the launch titles for the Detective Club in 1929. It was written by former Scotland Yard chief inspector Frank Froest, who had turned in retirement to writing successful and authentic crime novels. If you like a thriller with plenty of exciting incident and a clever plot, you will like this first-rate detective novel by Frank Froest. Chief Inspector Foyle was confronted with the most bewildering case of his career when Goldenburg, the crook, was found foully murdered in the flat of Robert Grell, millionaire. Here was what appeared to be a perfect crime without a clue that led anywhere. But Foyle was more than a match for the archcriminal, and his masterly deduction and determination brought him a splendid triumph. Critic Reviews: "Attractively bound in black and gold, with vivid coloured jackets, these books are bound to be immensely popular."

This was a fine story and novel, almost a novella as it is not lengthy. This is a story about a weaver and the weaving trade in days gone by. It is a story about a steady personality (the protagonist) who overcomes devastating adversity and personal cruelty under small favourable circumstances which are both unpredictable for the reader and could be true to life. This novel, could be based on a true story for its detail and convincing authenticity of trade and character development. The storyline lent itself well to being dramatized with Sir Ben Kingsley playing "Silas" in the 1980's BBC production which adheres well to the intention expressed in the novel by George Eliot The paperback by George Elliot makes a fine gift for a young person starting life. not just for high school students Most of my friends read Silas Marner in high school English and still shudder, but my high school marched to a different drummer (or none) and I had never read it. No one would pretend that it is one of George Eilot's masterpieces -- it's no Middlemarch, not by a long shot. But even in its much smaller way, it has all the germs of her intelligence, literary style, and human compassion, even when tainted by a certain predictability and triteness of plot. It also has Eliot's greatest weakness, which is that she seems to lose interest in the central situation she creates once it has been fully developed, and as in many of her (greater) books, rushes to the end once it is in sight. Still, no person who wishes to be thought literate in English literature should not have read Silas Marner. For whatever shortcomings it may have, it's a page turner by a literary master. It's a classic! I very much enjoyed this classic book. I was never required to read it in school, so had no preconceived opinion about it. It was a sad tale with a happy ending of the "and they lived happily ever after type." The only reasoning I rated it 4 stars instead of 5 is because of all the detail. Like a lot of classics, there was so much detail that I neither wanted nor understood. For the most part, I just skimmed over it. Nevertheless, I found it a good story, well worth the time to read. Sorry I didn't read it earlier I was supposed to read this book in 9th grade but didn't. Fudged my way through. Now, fifty-four years later, I regret not doing my assignments. Eliot accurately captures the lifestyle and culture of 19th century rural England. She also clearly demonstrates the unconscious loss a hoarder and a loner sustains. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/In-the-Twilight-Audiobook/B00U2XUPPU Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: Gulliver's Travels, Part One: 'A Voyage to Lilliput' (20 June 1702 - 3 June 1706) Author: Jonathan Swift Narrator: Joel Grey Format: Abridged Length: 4 hrs and 45 mins Language: English Release date: 01-26-15 Publisher: Phoenix Books Genres: Classics, British Literature Publisher's Summary: Shipwrecked on an unknown island, Quinbus Fiestrin awakens to find himself tied to the ground by the natives of Lilliput--tiny people small enough to fit in his pocket and play hide and seek in his hair! Fiestrin finds himself not only a very big fish in a small pond but also a fish out of water. "Part One: A Voyage to Lilliput" is the most famous segment of the novel, where the at-first suspicious Gulliver soon earns the trust of the Lilliputian people, who enlist their newfound giant in defending them from their enemies on the bordering island of Blefufeu--who likewise are desperate to use the giant in their war against Lilliput. Stevenson, it would seem, had a sense of the future, as this is truly a tale of the fight over a weapon of mass destruction. American actor, singer, and dancer Joel Grey is best known for portraying the master of ceremonies in both the stage and film versions of the musical Cabaret. He has won the Academy Award, Tony Award, and Golden Globe Award. bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (Jonathan Swift) Mon, 26 Jan 2015 15:50:44 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Gullivers-Travels-Part-One-A-Voyage-to-Lilliput-20-June-1702-3-June-1706-Audiobook/B00SM3MF50 thebookvoice.com 04:45:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: Ben Preserve Us Author: Chaim Bermant Narrator: Angus King Format: Unabridged Length: 6 hrs and 1 min Language: English Release date: 01-15-15 Publisher: Audible Studios Genres: Classics, British Literature Publisher's Summary: I bring you up to believe that nothing is good enough for you, and you grow up to be good for nothing. Thus, Mrs. Bindle, on learning that Ben, her only-begotten son, has decided to be a Rabbi; what is more, a Rabbi in a small provincial town in Scotland. Her anxiety proves to be not unjustified, although Ben's chosen career has its compensations-perhaps Helen, the promiscuous teenage daughter of his housekeeper; perhaps Simmy, the young wife of an elderly parishioner; perhaps the whole incident-prone pace of the pawky Scottish town in which this richly-human story is set. First published in 1965, Chaim Bermant's third novel has all the wit, warmth and colour of its critically-acclaimed forerunners. Chaim Bermant (1929-1998) was born in Breslev, Poland and moved to Glasgow, Scotland at the age of 8. He was educated in Glasgow and became a teacher before joining Scottish TV and then Granada. Bermant became a prominent Anglo-Jewish journalist, and had a regular coloumn in The Jewish Chronicle and occasionally to the national press, particularly The Observer and The Daily Telegraph. During his lifetime, Bermant wrote a number of scripts for both Radio and Television, including the BBC, as well as several for Anglia TV. Bermant's book, The Squire of Bor Shachor was serialized on the Radio and Bermant also appeared in several productions in person, including, in 1981, one of the BBC's 'Everyman' series. Bermant wrote a total of 31 books; his novels and non-fiction works reflect his sometimes controversial opinions and his observations on Anglo-Jewish society. bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (Chaim Bermant) Thu, 15 Jan 2015 02:46:57 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Ben-Preserve-Us-Audiobook/B00S8QOSP6 thebookvoice.com 06:01:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: A Jewish "Annals of the Parish"! Well narrated. Humorous, well-observed social comedy about a small Scots-Jewish "parish" told by its young (English, rich) Rabbi- who nevertheless adjusts very quickly to the culture shock, manages his snobbish mother (who regards the rabbinate as an occupation not much better than drug-dealing!), relates his experiences with an amusement and love that neither Rev Micah Balwhidder, of John Galt's ill-recognised masterpiece, or Rabbi David Small, Harry Kemelman's wee town amateur detective in Eastern USA, ever achieved. Scots-Jewish humour is hard to beat, though maybe Irish-Jewish would match up. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Berl-Make-Tea-Audiobook/B00S8M2Q36 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: Jericho Sleep Alone Author: Chaim Bermant Narrator: David Monteath Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 26 mins Language: English Release date: 12-26-14 Publisher: Audible Studios Genres: Classics, British Literature Publisher's Summary: Part Bildungsroman, part hymn to the city of Glasgow, Jericho Sleep Alone is without a doubt the finest book written about the Scots-Jewish experience. From Bar Mitzvah to an unfulfilling teaching career, Jericho Eli Broock finds himself a perennial outsider and unlucky in love, neither his on-off affair with the flighty Ninna or his financially prudent dalliance with the homely Camilla coming to fruition. Will the sometimes oppressive aid of the Jewish community make all well in his world? Chaim Bermant (1929-1998) was born in Breslev, Poland and moved to Glasgow, Scotland at the age of 8. He was educated in Glasgow and became a teacher before joining Scottish TV and then Granada. Bermant became a prominent Anglo-Jewish journalist, and had a regular column in The Jewish Chronicle and occasionally to the national press, particularly The Observer and The Daily Telegraph. During his lifetime, Bermant wrote a number of scripts for both radio and television, including the BBC, as well as several for Anglia TV. Bermant's book, The Squire of Bor Shachor was serialized on the radio, and Bermant also appeared in several productions in person, including, in 1981, one of the BBC's Everyman series. Bermant wrote a total of 31 books; his novels and non-fiction works reflect his sometimes controversial opinions and his observations on Anglo-Jewish society. bdssaigon.net2@gmail.com (Chaim Bermant) Fri, 26 Dec 2014 14:18:33 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Jericho-Sleep-Alone-Audiobook/B00R75M9QE thebookvoice.com 07:26:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Glasgow's miles better There aren't too many hymns of praise to Glasgow ("the dear green place"), but this one has humour, acute social observation, and, ultimately, some resolution, and hope. This is no misery memoir: misfortunes are bearable, setbacks can be overcome, and even the generational nagging of older relatives (fleeing from pogrom or wars) who did not have the good fortune to grow up in Scotland can be accepted in the end. I am sure Jericho did not sleep alone forever, but Bermant has left us in suspense. As ever, David Monteath narrates flawlessly, though perhaps I am not an informed critic of English accents outwith the South East. This is a funny, moving, gentle story about growing up in Scotland, at a specific time, and in a small religious/ethnic community adapting rapidly to Scottishness. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Lady-Windermeres-Fan-Audiobook/B00P6SIAZ8 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Funny yet shaky book Full of ups and downs, goods and bads, this book seems to hurt itself as much as it helps itself. Blending hysterical scenes of the nuns outrageous antics and then bogging down dialogue and narrative with dry classics references, the book has a good foundation, but it's structure is shoddy. The story itself is fun and funny, but some sections just make you feel confused and needing to reread it. The sisters are given intricate backstories that are then just shrugged at in passing. While it has great humor in some scenes, others just drone on and on on subjects that don't seem to contribute to the story. The pacing of the story reflects this. The pacing can be quick paced satirical gold, in other places it's choppy and jumping scenes, other places it just drags. The story, even in it's satirical nature, takes a few points to extremes that even under the fun of satire seem to stretch my willing suspension of disbelief. The book is, as the stars indicate, okay, could be better could be worse. Not worth the effort The book might have bee irreverently funny except for the author`s overuse of trying to show his extensive vocabulary. It made reading it way too ponderous and tedious. I skipped more than I read which is something I have never done with any book I have ever read. This book is terrible. I tried to read it but became so ... This book is terrible. I tried to read it but became so disgusted that I deletedit from my Kindle before finishing the second chapter.. I ordered it accidentally and I sure wish I could get my money back. In my opinion it wasn't worth reading if it had been free! It was not one of my favorite books. To busy telling about all the mischeavous ... I was not very impressed with this book. It was not one of my favorite books. To busy telling about all the mischeavous things the Three Sisters were doing while growing up. It was not a flowing book to read. The Three Sisters Had no idea what the book would be about after seeing the cover. But found it very interesting, you never knew what would be happening around any corner. It was an easy read but also deep in sections of it. So it keeps you very captivated. Would highly recommend it. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Classics/Priklyucheniya-Sherloka-Holmsa-Audiobook/B00MAM9FJ8 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/408/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

I wanted to reread it for it had been many years since I've read it and I very much enjoyed it . I also enjoyed the story of the three Bears and three little pigs and Tom Thumb was included in this book . All of the stories were somewhat different from the versions I had read before but they were quite good . I recommend this book to those two like fairytales.
