Reviews


(5 stars)

This charming romantic story , though it shows the class prejudices of its day, was a pleasure to hear, read beautifully by the excellent reader.

Elinor Glyn is fine voice actor


(3 stars)

Elinor Glyn must have used half a dozen or a few more different character vocalizations in the book. I haven't enjoyed so many distinct character vocalizations since I listened to Martin Geeson's reading of Fyodor Dostoyevsky's "The Idiot"(i.e. the epileptic), part one and two. The genre of book i confess I feel middling about(it's better than most war novels or some other genre's). I am more interested in novels that include or about the working or lower classes, rural novels where there is more character development of workers like in Thomas Hardy's "Far from the Madding", i like a book that includes the various social classes interactions and progressive social novels from the 19th and early 20th century. However it is Glyn's fine reader acting which made me enjoy this book. I'm not finished yet with this book but i thought i better mention Elinor Glyn's entertaining reading before i jump into another librivox/IA listen to another book. And I also liked that Glyn read at a human pace
