Horrible, strange, frightening narrator.


(1 stars)

This narrator has a genuinely, horrifying and frightening voice! Librivox, just because a person gives their time to narrate, doesn't mean you should totally neglect all quality control!! Some people just don't have pleasant voices and they ruin, the experience for others with their awful voices. I have to say, this is the first voice that, I have found truly terrifying!! The woman sounds possessed and should be banned here. If there was no star option, I would have given this truly, horrifying, weird and strange narration it! 18th of January 2022.

Decent, Ordinary, Average Narrator


(5 stars)

This narrator has a genuinely ordinary voice! The readers voice is so ordinary that I enjoy it it, that is a bad thing, you should never enjoy a voice. Yep. No sarcasm intended, of course. Yep. None at aaaaaaall! 23rd of January 2022.

good


(5 stars)

a perfectly fine reader -- I find her voice soothing. I really appreciate her pacing and emphasis. Too many poetry readers take it at a gallop, but it takes time to parse what someone like Meynell is saying.
