Listening to this story/book was an adventure, a discovery and delightful on so many levels.
Stephen Fry as narrator does such an amazing job to bring this story to life and let you live it as you listen to it. This listen was immersive, and I liked that a lot.
I am also astonished how modern this story feels even after the many years it was first told. A timeless classic, I would have to agree.
