A wonderfully narrated classic.

One of the very few Audible English classic novels intelligently narrated. The narration of this Jane Eyre is unmarked by the foolish approximations of “voicing” marring most of the Audible recordings. Audible renders most classics, British, American, European, or otherwise, with a myriad of absurd, miserable accents. Audible has forgotten that each author of the many classics was intended to be read, not play-acted, as though on stage. These fine classics should be read and only read by each narrator. Not acted with characterizations of each character’s supposed accent, most of which are ruined by narrators who sound like they are passing kidney stones. But they don’t learn, do they . . .

Wonderful classic

This is a beautiful story of love, loss, and redemption. It is a very nice audio performance as well. I’m so glad that I invested the time to listen to it.
