Northanger Abbey


Lu par LibriVox Volunteers

(4.2 étoiles; 168 critiques)

Northanger Abbey is a hilarious parody of 18th century gothic novels. The heroine, 17-year old Catherine, has been reading far too many “horrid” gothic novels and would love to encounter some gothic-style terror — but the superficial world of Bath proves hazardous enough.

Critiques

Pick one reader!


(4 étoiles)

The writings of Jane Austin are always interesting and in many instances quite fun. However, having 20+ readers for 31 chapters makes for difficult listening. With a single reader you get comfortable with his or her rhythm and the sorry flows well. Multiple readers makes following dialog difficult and tedious.

I hope you enjoy the absurd

Narration randomly changes between multiple readers, including a woman with a Brooklyn accent and an ESL speaker. This is definitely the weirdest way I've ever experienced Austen. And I once broke up a fistfight at a Austen-style historic English Ball. This is weirder.

Each chapter is read by a different volunteer, which is jarring.

too many readers

I don't mind kost of the readers. BUT Ms. Kristen LeMoine gave me a headache with those overlong pauses between sentences. Terrible to listen to, no rhythm...

A quality book. There are multiple readers and they vary in quality. But overall it was well worth listening to.
