very enjoyable

(5 Sterne)

Classic Dickens, hilarious, heart wrenching, suspenseful and a little spooky at times. I hadn’t heard of a couple of these stories, and I’m very glad to have discovered them. Dickens is a writer who always has something new, no matter how many of his books you read. The narrator was excellent and I’ll be seeking out more of his readings. Thank you!
