Heart of a Dog

Narrado por: Deaver Brown

A novel about Soviet repression in the Russian tradition of Nikolai Gogol in Dead Souls and The Inspector General. Great fun as it explores the repression of that era.

Narrator ruined it for me

I had to delete and find a different narrator for the same story. I will preview narration from now on.

What the hell was THAT?!

Yiiiiiiikes!!! I'm sampling the narrator performance first, moving forward!!! Good lord!!! Never again!!! Never!!!

slow tedious

although the idea of the book is great...the reader tone was very unexpresive, the unchanging and repetitive music of the background not helping. it is an exception that I dont finish a book even when I dislike the story. but this one I truly couldn't

not all audiobooks are created equal

I wish I could rate the content of the audiobook itself, but I have no idea what's going on. the narraration in this audiobook is abysmal, with a distracting and not tonally appropriate piano looping through it's entirety. the narrarator has awkward pauses, stumbles over words, and even pauses to click on a computer for a while in one instance. it's as if he's never seen any of the names in this book prior to starting the recording, with no do-overs. it's unlistenable, but I somehow made it through half of it.

Audio Unintelligible

This is impossibly to listen. Narrator is either drunk or eating something or both. He slurs his words. There are awkward pauses every now and then. Be also can’t pronounce any of the foreign names and wont attempt. Requesting a refund. On top of all this there is loud piano loop playing over the narration.

WTF! Absolutely horrible narration!

This one taught me to ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS sample the narration prior to buying. Where did they find this guy?!?!?!

Terrible narration. Guy couldn’t even pronounce.

What was with the constant piano playing over the top? Couldn’t concentrate on story. Will need to return.
