Great work! As Sanjin found out, grass is not greener on the other side. In Serbian we say: Ne traži hleba preko pogaÄe. Excellent reading by ТоваÑиÑ. I'm looking forward to find more of his reading.
Wonderful story, wonderful reader, he makes it seem as if you're in 19th century Russia, very enjoyable
Lovely

A nice romantic story with colourful characters and a good plot. The reader did a splendid job and added to the feel of the story with his slightly foreign accent. It portrays a sweet love story, but be warned; the ending is bitter sweet. I still highly recommend it, though.
fabulous story and reading. A tale of warning that will stay long with me. At times the writing is a bit overflowered, but forgiven.
Why can I only give 5 stars? This reading deserves much more. I cannot fault it. Very engaging indeed. And what a great novel!
Moving story, the charm of which is greatly enhanced by the beautiful reading by Tovarisch
worth more than 5 stars. I could not stop listening to it.
