Dickens at his finest. I’ve never read a Charles Dickens book I didn’t like. He is a Classic. This book is a must-read, y’all.

It’s Dickens

This is the second book by Charles Dickens I have read and the second Audible book I have listened to, (The first being Billy Budd by Herman Melville). The change in voices, the intonation of the narrative gave me the impression I was being read to by Charles Dickens himself. I highly recommend this book to any fan of Dickens work.

Great expectations personified

What can I say that hasn’t been said about this classic. It is the first time I have read it and I found myself amazed at Charles Dickens’ writing. It should come as no surprise and yet I found myself over and over again saying to myself “this man is what every writer hopes to be”. The story, the imagery, the life of Pip and all the amazing characters. Miss Haversham, Joe, Herbert, Wemmick etc. beautifully realized, layered, human. A story of real life and feeling mg’s from back when we think they didn’t feel thugs as we do today. How wrong we are. This is an adventure of the ages with feelings of the ages that will always be important, relevant and a classic to measure all writing by.

Simply spectacular

I have listened to many books on Audible: This was by far the best narration, making each character come alive

INCREDIBLE NARRATION
