One of the most famous of all literary dogs, Flush was the golden cocker spaniel belonging to Elizabeth Barrett. In this charming and heartfelt biography, Viginia Woolf tells his story: his early days as Miss Mitford's puppy running across the fields in wild abandon and fathering another, then the years spent in his invalid mistress' bedroom in Wimpole Street.

Volume became too low mid-way through book.
Revisado: 11-14-22
Excellent book and rendition. Volume became too low midway through the book even when device audio turned to max.

Excellent performance by Anthony Lee
Revisado: 12-20-18
Very topical political thriller, given the ongoing deportations of individuals from many countries by the US, including some who have spent their entire lives in the US. Chillingly believable. Not great fiction, but very engaging to listen to and read. Anthony Lee does excellent renditions of the characters with very divergent voices and personalities. Highly recommend the audible version!

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 125
From New York to Europe, the apartments of the nouveau riche to ancient French estates, Edith Wharton tells the story of Undine Spragg, a girl from a Midwestern town with unquenchable social aspirations. Though Undine is narcissistic, pampered, and incredibly selfish, she is a beguiling heroine whose marital initiation into New York high society from its trade-wealthy fringes is only the beginning of her relentless ambitions.

Audio on voice vacillates, inaudible at times
Revisado: 11-05-18
This particular narration, by Lorna Raver, is engaging in her voicing of the characters, but there is a huge technical problem with the audio fluctuating from too loud to almost inaudible. As the narrator raises and lowers her tone, she also alternates her volume, so that I have to turn up the volume on my device to hear her at all, and then within a few seconds, when she is portraying another character, I'm blasted in both ears. This has happened using headphones, my phone speakers, and on my car stereo. I've lost lines and had to backtrack and play them again, and been blasted numerous times. I'm going to ask for a refund for this reading.
