“You folks are showing your ignorance. There is an older English accent or affectation that I believe was mildly common in which the r sound was replaced with the w. The L sound, as well. If you listen to some readers of English prose, you will often hear the reader using that accent for some higher class or aristocratic characters. In the P. G. Wodehouse world of Jeeves and Wooster, one of my favorite narrators uses that "speech impediment" version of r's turned into "w" - Like "The Bwitish Wabbit stew is weady wight now!" - for who... well, for ONE of Bertie Wooster's best friends. Therefore, what you're complaining about in the narrator's "acting" of Miss Bingley is, to my mind, a great strength which lends authenticity to the performance!”Read full review »

“Why are the chapters not labeled and in order. This podcast is like getting a book with the chapters all out of order. Organization is important!”
