The most poorly performed book I have listened to of all time. Absolute torture.

Some of the most wonderful prose was butchered by this performance. Such a shame that these works were garbled to have masked their beauty and ingenuity. Absolutely terrible. I made a note of the reader so that I never order any book by this performer.

I can't get through this title

The narrator is not for me. I love the authors. I love these works. I can't listen to this narration of them.
