Bostonians
Revisado: 07-15-07
So many of the classics I want to listen to are read by Flo Gibson and I have trouble with her sing-song delivery. The Bostonians is another example of a book that I keep trying to listen to but find I get lost because her delivery is so mannered, it's a struggle to follow the story. I hope Blackstone will remake them with a different reader. Be sure to listen to the sample before you buy to see if you can tolerate it.

When Chadwick Newsome lingers too long in Paris, his mother, a wealthy New England widow, sends her fiancé, Lambert Strether, to fetch him home. Newsome refuses, extending his stay while Strether finds himself lured by the intrigue of Parisian life. Published in 1903, The Ambassadors is regarded as a masterpiece of American fiction for its exceptional structure, its moral significance, and its depiction of the contrasting New and Old World cultures. Henry James considered this his finest novel.

I agree with the two above reviews- the reading style makes this one intolerable. One of the few books I regret renting. I hope this novel will come out on audio with another reader.
