The House of Mirth by Edith Wharton
Revisado: 01-19-15
I thought this book was okay, well worth the 95 cents that I paid. I am not sure why so many other reviewers disliked the narrator. This is the second book that I've listened to which she has narrated and I found her perfectly adequate.

The passionate and tragic story of Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff is one of the high points of 19th-century Romantic literature. In the relationship of Cathy and Heathcliff, and in the wild, bleak Yorkshire Moors of its setting, Wuthering Heights creates a world of its own, conceived with a disregard for convention and an instinct for poetry and the darkest depths of the human soul in torment.

Lots of screaming, sobbing, and whining
Revisado: 01-15-15
In the first place, this is an awful book, even if it's a classic and this reading of it is painful to listen to and makes it worse. I appreciate the narrator's skill, but the greater portion of this narration is yelled at you and the remainder is all crying and whining. I found myself skipping forward at parts just because I hated the voice that the narrator had assigned to one character.
I do think the narrator is skillful in being able to yell the archaic speeches at such lengths and in doing a broad Yorkshire accent in places. However, I prefer to have audio books mostly read at me without the over-acting in this rendition.
