I listened to a different version of The Dead (on youtube read by T Hynes [ChapterVox]) and it was a great experience! Doesn't really change my experience with the plot itself <I was still confused as hell) but the guy who read it did a fantastic job! His accent, pronunciation, singing and delivery in general were incredible and I highly recommend this version. It helped me with understanding certain parts (pronouncing Gabriel's name with 3 syllables...) and just added so much life to the story itself!
