“The story has the power to distract one from the most distressing concern. It is so absorbing you will not want to stop listening until the 60+ chapters are over and then you will be sorry that you didn't ration the hours over more days! I suggest that you find a cast of characters to which you can refer when new characters start appearing towards the middle part of the book.
This would be a 5 star review if the reader knew how to pronounce French at all. She even ruins simple French words common in English such as claret (she pronounces it with a soft t) which is probably used 100 times in the story. About a dozen times did she jolt me out of the story with her mispronunciations.
Otherwise, the reader has the perfect voice for the story. Plus, it is a nice break from the LONG list of credits read for every chapter by the Librivox folks.
Enjoy!”
