Among Jane Austen's favorite novels, and a key work in the rise of Romanticism, Camilla follows the story of three young women, from childhood to young adulthood, and their pursuit of matrimony.

Kind but naive Camilla is in love with Edgar Mandlebert, a handsome and noble young man, but must suffer a series of frequent misunderstandings that threaten their happy union. Intelligent Eugenia, destined to inherit her uncle's great wealth, is plagued with misfortune as she is left disfigured by smallpox and has men court her for financial gain only. Meanwhile their cousin, beautiful but selfish Indiana, never finds a fortune for her good looks. Accompanying them is a cast of memorable characters, such as the rowdy prankster Lionel, the dim-witted Mr. Dubster, and the scornful Miss Margland.

Addiction, pride, miscommunication and false judgement are all still relevant themes. It was an enjoyable listen, and if I had been reading, there were some phrases that deserved highlighting and quoting on social media. But sometimes the painful bits were overdrawn IMO. I like exercising my vocabulary with the classics and this one definitely did that for me!

A bit long winded and overdramatic but sometimes insightful

This book is a bit of a commitment but it is worth every minute. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Outstanding

Tedious! This overly lengthy book needs editing, modernizing, more actors, and dramatizing. Great story, though.

tedious! needs editing and dramatizing.

This book is a delight to anyone who likes 18 century books. The price is gorgeous And the character easy to like. It does get a little slow towards the end but overall I just love these books. Lucy Scott’s narration is excellent. She gives each character an appropriate voice and she never stumbles over the complex prose. Now I’m waiting for them to finally do a professional narration of “Cecilia”…

Love books by Fanny Burney

It was long but I enjoyed it. My only complaint is that Camila spend so much time in remorse and crying and that voice she used for those emotions was a little shrill/whiny and began to get on my nerves. Even with that her performance skills are amazing!!! She is a true actress and probably a girl of 19 in distress would sound shrill and whiny. The story was beautiful and characters vivid.

Loved it

If you like well-read, old-fashioned melodramat, drawn out with shameless padding and sentimentality, prepare to spend a week listening to this set of... was it seven? books. I lost patience with the hapless heroine after a while and with the author after about the fourth book. Her love interest was so full of judgements without inquiry that I could see this story but a version of Pride and Prejudice, Emma and Sense and Sensibility with Northinger Abbey thrown in for good measure. The heroine was hapless and helpless in an extremely irritating repetition of mishaps that I found my eyes rolling as my mind begged the author to "get on with it!"

In Need of a Good Editor

I'm not sure how I've missed this story all these years. The level of detail and passion written into these characters is astounding. I have to say that sometimes it reads like Three's Company, a sitcom from the late 70s, early 80s? How does Edgar not question what he sees according to who Camila has always been is beyond me. If only Camila would speak up... at so many moments... it would have cleared everything up immediately. ugh! However, those were the times I suppose, and the story would have been disappointingly short. Lucy Scott has done an amazing job at creating voices for so many characters. They are distinct and recognizable immediately. I actually wept at the point of Camila's accounting to her own conscience and Ms. Scott's agonized voice depicting it all.
My husband and I were on a road trip listening to it. He came in to the story just past the mid point. He would pause it once in a while to express frustration at the proceedings and people's (women's) inability to express what they really felt and the self denial of what was right for themselves. We have truly come a long way from those times in that regard.
Well done!

Wonderfully long and detailed story.

Yes, it's very long, but it's worth the time to listen. Loved the narrator, Lucy Scott, as well.

Long, but excellent

I wanted it to go on forever! I wanted to stay in their world forever!

Fantastic!

Frances Burney's artful story crafting is apparent in Camilla. Though there were a few times I grew a little frustrated with the characters and the many miscommunications or lack of communications that drove the main plot, it is not a fault of the story but rather a result of the point Burney aims to make at the culmination. Even the side characters and plots are rich and detailed. I might say that I enjoyed Evelina more than Camilla overall, but I also think Camilla is just as well worth reading for the insights it gives on human nature and the intriguing storylines. As an avid Austen reader who is new to other novels of this era, I was surprised by the much more dramatic adventures that occur in Burney's works, but never fail to be surprised by the twists and turns the story takes. Lucy Scott narrates this epic tale masterfully.

A gem of a classic
