A review by kahkins
Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen
4.0
Pride and Prejudice is a delightful story ahead of its time. Written over two centuries ago, its hate-to-love storyline was as entertaining then as it is now. With all the additional drama of various ridiculous relations, love triangles, and several secondary romances.
The narrator’s enactment easily identified each character. Their acting was lively enough to embody the characters and move the story along without overdramatic Which could have easily happened due to the frequent hysterics several secondary characters express and experience. The accent and tone were “light British” as in it was not as prim and forceful sounding in diction as some of the other audio recordings of this book I have listened to (I honestly have no idea how do describe this and intend no disrespect to anyone). And not a straightforward “American” accent, which would be weird and unappealing for England.
If one is unfamiliar with this writing style, I would recommend particularly. And if you are, this is an enjoyable listen, so I would to that person too.
