The Rosary
Florence Louisa Barclay
Read by LibriVox Volunteers
"The Rosary" is a beautiful love story. Gareth Dalmain falls in love with the Honorable Jane Champion. She loves him back, but does not trust his love, as is known to be a great lover of beauty, and she - alas - is very plain. Just as she decides to trust him, she receives news that he has been blinded in a hunting accident. She wants to go visit him, but he will not receive her, as he wants only her love - not her pity. With the help of their mutual friend and doctor, she gets the position as his nurse under a presumed name, and thereby gets to know the 'new' Gareth. (Summary by Maria Elmvang) (10 hr 50 min)

Reviews
A wonderful read!
JRW
This book is very interesting & has good lessons for life. There are a few volunteer voices that take away from the beauty of the reading tho. Please use volunteers that know English well & know how to pronounce words. That was my only complaint.
Beautiful Romance

A beautiful love story that is well written and captivating. It makes your heart break, rejoice and palpitate throughout the course of the story. Some of the readers did a wonderful job but the heavily accented ones were hard to understand, so I had to reread it in my copy of the book. That defeats the purpose of an audio book. That's my only complaint.
A love story

A love story for the time it was written. It is simple and the characters are not to complex, but I still enjoyed it. This is also read by real people and not a computer, so I am grateful for all the readers for their time. Thank you to all of them.

Didn't really enjoy or finish the story. Am a Christian but not more appealing for that. Maria's accent is not conducive to easy listening unfortunately.
Wonderful Sweet Story
