If you are looking for a faithful narration of Persuasion, you won’t find it here. However, this dramatic adaptation brings to life the novel (which at times can be a bit tedious and slow-going) and keeps you engaged throughout. I could have done without the intense transition music, but Florence Pugh’s narration more than makes up for it. As with all the Audible adaptations, if you’re looking for an approachable way of enjoying Austen, it’s a great choice.
