About this listen

 Barnaby Rudge: A Tale of the Riots of Eighty (commonly known as Barnaby Rudge) is an historical novel by the author Charles Dickens. Published between 1840 and 1841, it is Dickens' first attempt at an historical novel, his only other being A Tale of Two Cities. Full of classic Dickensian characters, the plot is based on the "no-popery" or Gordon riots of 1780 seen through the eyes of the good-hearted idiot Barnaby Rudge.

Charles Dickens (1812 - 9 June 1870) is arguably the greatest novelist England ever produced.

A much better listen than the most recent rendering of Dickens

This is a story that is actually quite timely with all that is taking place worldwide. Since Dickens was much closer to the historical time of the revolt, it gives me great hope that mankind seems to keep repeating history but does manage to survive and be better for the revolutions.
The narration of this version is older but much easier to listen to than the most recent version on Audible. I just couldn't get through the other narration. There are so many characters listen to the constant and jarring changes in voices was too much.
