Reseñas
totally delightful narration; fun and funny book, too
Leah NYC
I hope this narrator will contribute more to librivox. I can't imagine a better audio rendition of this book. Thank you, thank you, and bravo!
Terrific old yarns
Darcy
Great stories from Australia's past, classic. Read the book and enjoyed it even more listening to a great narrator, well done and thank you.
Dark humor? Or bitter despair?
Kerrigan
Okay, it is written well and humorously (and read well). It’s full of interesting characters and piquant situations. It is also a story of relentless poverty, almost complete hopelessness and near-starvation. So... maybe I’m just not in the right mood for this?
really funny

What characters. the reader was hilarious. definitely one of the funniest short stories I've listened to.
