Resumen del Editor

Zuleika Dobson is a satire of undergraduate life at Oxford. It was Beerbohm’s only novel, but was nonetheless very successful. This satire includes the famous line "Death cancels all engagements" and presents a corrosive view of Edwardian Oxford. In 1998, the Modern Library ranked Zuleika Dobson 59th on its list of the 100 best English-language novels of the 20th century!

I loved it

I loved ever bit if it for to the Va to the story itself it was pleasant to listen to I felt immersed in the story

A fascinating work—w/ misogynistic elements

The author did not like women. The story, while unique, is tainted by the author’s overt prejudice against women.

Poor choice of Narrator

Narrator is an older British man who tries to do voices both male and female. I found the narration annoying. I found much of the dialogue insipid and the plot to be fairly ridiculous but I love Oxford which is why I read the book. Maybe more enjoyable with a more engaging narrator.
