Tess Durbeyfield has become one of the most famous female protagonists in 19th-century British literature. Betrayed by the two men in her life - Alec D’Urberville, her seducer/rapist and father of her fated child; and Angel, her intellectual and pious husband - Tess takes justice, and her own destiny, into her delicate hands. In telling her desperate and passionate story, Hardy brings Tess to life with an extraordinary vividness that makes her live in the heart of the reader long after the novel is concluded.

Hardy's Best
Revisado: 05-07-18
I first read this classic 54 years ago and I remember how deeply impacted I was by this emotional tale of such a powerful woman. Now, in this brilliantly performed Audible revisitation, the 17 hour binge put me in touch with many parallels of my past life and that of Tess and these other characters. For the moment, I just can't seem to stop flooding.

Brilliant read by Ian. This short story will enthrall you and take you to a special place. The tale leaves us with a powerful message, as it is also an allegory of life. Never lose sight of your inner child. Never forget your roots. One added thought.....animals understand a lot more than we think they do!

Homicide Detective Max Rupert never fully accepted his wife's death, even when he believed that a reckless hit and run driver was the cause. But when he learns that in fact she was murdered, he devotes himself to hunting down her killers. Most of his life he had thought of himself as a decent man. But now he's so consumed with thoughts of retribution that he questions whether he will take that last step and enact the vengeance he longs for.

A Great Novel that spawned a Great Film
Revisado: 04-27-18
Performances were brilliant. This human story should be required reading in middle school. It sets examples that are apparently not taught or learned in schools anymore. Time to step back a bit and learn, or re-learn what we missed the first time.

Brilliant performances of this engrossing take that will tug your emotions to the breaking point. The ending will throw you about relentlessly to where you cannot guess the next page! The epilog will peak your emotions once again as all questions are answered, except one. It has taken me well over an hour to stop crying long enough to write this review. I suspect there will be more tears shed as I recall what I heard over the last two days. If this story doesn't move you, then sadly, you are a block of granite!

Here is a masterpiece that will relentlessly tug at your brain, your heart, and your soul. I binged it to its volcanic ending, having followed every twist and rise and fall of brilliant storytelling. It has left me satisfied and fulfilled by my time invested in experiencing Esken's art. I need to recover and chill with some wine and a sandwich! Put this audible at the top of your wish list NOW!

There isn't much fun in the sun when a billionaire real estate tycoon is found murdered on the Tilt-a-Whirl at a seedy seaside amusement park in the otherwise quiet summer tourist town of Sea Haven. John Ceepak, a former MP just back from Iraq, has just joined the Sea Haven police department. The job offer came from an old Army buddy who hoped to give Ceepak at least a summer's worth of rest and relaxation to help him forget the horrors of war. Instead, Ceepak will head up the murder investigation.
