Excellent book and readers

(5 Sterne)

I have enjoyed every Trollop book so far regardless of any occasional wish they were shorter. In particular , I like to read his criticism of his society and his description of its norms. I do ignore his notions of a wife's place in and out of the home, but acknowledge his fairness in recognizing the intelligence of many women. Sometimes his heroines are too good, but well he was writing for his audience not me. Finally, I appreciate his insight into the emotional life of his characters and his recognition that their are so many shades between good and bad in a person (with the exception of some too good heroines)

Esp. Readings and odd comment

(5 Sterne)

I must protest - the Simon Evers readings are perfect. Twinkle Toes' comment makes no sense to me whatever. These stories are superb. But I am glad I was not born in Victorian England - or Victorian anywhere for that matter. What (according to Trollope) society expected of young women thinking and behaviour is superhuman. Fortunately it's the Miss Dunstables that prevailed.

Pleasantly surprised

(4 Sterne)

Despite the variety of readers, I enjoyed this read. There was only one reader I found difficult to listen to. I do enjoy Trollope's multiple story lines and the way they are intertwined. Definitely read this one as part of the Barchester series. Best to read them in order just to keep track of the characters.

Classic Trollope

(4,5 Sterne)

This book is a classic Trollope - set in Rural England and London, with his main characters from the aristocracy, the gentry and the clergy. Trollope shows their failings and demystifies the classes to which his characters belong. I really enjoyed Framley Personage, and the readers did a magnificent job. Thank you to the volunteers.

Classic Trollope

(3 Sterne)

This is classic Anthony Trollope. The entire series is worth listening to. However, Simon Evers' chapters, while very well read, are full of plosives and "wind" sounds. He had his microphone too close to his mouth, which really takes away from the listening experience.

Another great reading of Trollope

(5 Sterne)

Thanks to everyone who contributed. It's such a blessing to listen to these classics read so that I can knit and enjoy Trollope at the same time!

(5 Sterne)

I listened to this and all of his work over and over, it is always as good as the first. and great readers also, wished it would never end.

VINTAGE TROLLOPE

(4,5 Sterne)

Trollope always takes his time, but he never fails to furnish a satisfatory ending. The characters, as usual, are alive and seem to be our acquaintances.
