Very well read.

Oliver Twist is one of those classic stories that is truly timeless. Though the scenery around us changes and the vernacular evolves, the colors of life and emotion remain ever the same. There is the longing for love and belonging and safety. There are people who care and people who do not. There is the impulse to give, and the temptation to take. There is gentleness, and there is savagery. This rendition of Oliver Twist is very well read and you are pulled into the surroundings by the talented voice acting. I recommend it!

an enchantment

this vivid narration brings you into the heart of the story. the characters nice or bad come to live within your imagination. total immersion.

Its Just Me

This was my first attempt at getting through Oliver Twist, I am mot sure why I didn't think ot woyld be as heavy anf wordy as it is. Its a good, deep, interesting book. A Lot of brain and emotional and moral food. I simply had a difficult time getting through some parts bwcause it seems like they rambled ceaselessly.

Captivating storytelling

Having known only the musical version of this story, I was delighted to really experience the the rich writing of the novel. This particular narrator was fabulous- really colorful voice infused with humor and weight, and gave life to all the characters expertly. What a treat!

Absolutely wonderful

What made the experience of listening to Oliver Twist the most enjoyable?

I have never read or seen the entire story, so this was a delight. Martin Jarvis brought the characters to life and was consistent throughout the whole story. I wouldn't even think of giving this anything less than 4 stars.

Magnifique lively narrator

What an amazing narrator, what an actor, what a delightful pleasure it was to listen to these many voices, to these many characters performed by one mighty talented man.
I had so much fun listening to it, listening to him that I must say BRAVO !!!

Brilliant Performance

Oliver Twist is a well told story, and in this case it was narrated fantastically. I don't usually like when the narrator tries to do "voices", but in this case he was great.
