1.0

blazac needs to learn how to write women.

One star because the reader of this Tantor audio version is quite possibly the WORST reader I have ever encountered. He reads in phrases and clauses, all with the same droning intonation, and with no regard for the sense or emotion of what he is reading. Even worse, he affects a French accent which sounds more like Count Dracula. Balzac is turning in his grave. So how many stars does Balzac get for penning this tale -- hard to say, since the reader was so offputting. I'm willing to give ol' Balzy a 3 stars but I would truly have to read the thing myself to confirm that.
