When the young orphan called Pip encounters the escaped convict Magwitch, the child's life is altered forever - in ways he cannot even imagine. In the course of his story, Pip encounters such memorable characters as the eccentric Miss Havisham and her beautiful ward Estella - and a mysterious benefactor. This recording includes both of the endings Dickens wrote for this classic novel.

Reseñas editoriales

American actor and audio superstar Frank Muller is known for authenticity of voices, outstanding interpretation, and sheer natural ability. His is a voice one could listen to forever - it's sonorous and mellow without any unpleasant raspiness. Perhaps Muller's narration is a bit fast, but the dramatic intensity and nuance keep one from losing meaning. His characterizations are superb, expecially those of the imperious Jaggers, the sniveling Orlick and the confounding Magwitch. Muller's great strength lies in his ability to project an ease of presentation that, when combined with his extraordinary emotional alertness, produces a most engaging effect. Surprisingly soft-spoken and confidential in tone, Muller's Pip seems to be talking directly to the listener. Dickens would have been pleased.

What did you love best about Great Expectations?

Its a classic everyone should read. Audio made it easy!

What did you like best about this story?

The characters are strong and you get a real sense of life in London in a different era.

Which character – as performed by Frank Muller – was your favorite?

Pip was undeniably good, as you follow him through the years. From the trigger event at the beginning of the story, to his maturity at the end, you cant help to sympathise with Pip.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Nothing extreme. Just a good, solid, entertaining read.

Compelling listen.

Would you listen to Great Expectations again? Why?

Yes, but by a different reader. I had listened to it before, and thought I was ordering the same reader, but I apparently did not order what I was expecting.

What did you like best about this story?

The language, wonderfully developed characters, convoluted plot. It is Dickens at his best.

How could the performance have been better?

The reader reads much too fast; he does a nice job with the accents, but the pace is so rapid that Dickens' delicious language is lost in the rush.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Often made me laugh--and the relationship between Pip and Joe is very touching.

Classic novel read too fast

Where does Great Expectations rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

One of the top

What other book might you compare Great Expectations to and why?

None

Have you listened to any of Frank Muller’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I am 64 and read Dickens for HS or college but did not appreciate his ability to describe a situation in humorous or a "tongue in cheek" manner. It's almost as if he playing with his reading public thinking "let's see if they get this".

Any additional comments?

Frank Muller"s performance is superb .....he has a wide range of vocal personalities and does not irritate the listener when impersonating the female gender as many readers do.

Great performance and story

I wanted to read this but I ended up listening to it during an illness. Definitely worth hearing. Nothing blows up no more, no murders, but very satisfying!
Excellent narrator. Both endings are provided just really helpful.

A classic
