The Posthumous Papers of the Pickwick Club, better known as The Pickwick Papers, is the first novel by Charles Dickens. Written for publication as a serial, The Pickwick Papers consists of a sequence of loosely-related adventures. Its main literary value and appeal is formed by its numerous unforgettable heroes. Each personage in The Pickwick Papers (just as in many other Dickens' novels) is drawn comically, often with exaggerated features of character. (Wikipedia) (32 hr 0 min)

TIME WELL INVESTED
Avid Listener
(5 Sterne)
An interesting, leisurely journey. While most of it might be termed "verbal slapstick," there are serious moments, especially the commentary on Fleet Prison. Dickens also lets the modern reader understand that greedy, avaricious, and thoroughly despicable lawyers are not a new invention.
Dickens at his finest
(5 Sterne)
This novel, or serial of short stories and anecdotes, is raucous and sensible fun. It is not a light investment of time, but it is well worth it for someone willing to make the endeavor.

thoroughly enjoyable listen,my first dickens book but I now have the "bug" and will continue, my only negative is the amount of different narrators but all very good just the same the story sometimes seems a bit confusing but I think that made it the more interesting

Geat book well read. Exudes Dickens' famous wit and irony, eloquently poking fun at the ridiculous, and honoring the noble. Telling and retelling timeless truths. One can observe tid bits of his future works including A Christmas Carol and Little Dorrit.
Delightful Listen
