About this listen

Belle wants more out of life than the small provincial town of Villeneuve can offer. There she stands out from the crowd with her unique point of view, her strong-willed independence, and her love of books. She longs for travel and adventure, for a life as exciting as the stories she reads.

But when Belle's beloved father is taken prisoner by a beast in an enchanted castle, her path is forever changed. Risking her freedom and her future, she takes her father's place, secretly vowing to escape. But as she learns more about the Beast and his mysterious castle, Belle realizes that there may be more to his story - and her own - than she ever could have imagined.

Liked the original version better

This is a story that I enjoyed very much as a child and then, as an adult, seeing the Disney version with my two kids. A woman myself, I agree that women suffered inequality in all societies around the world and that we had/have to fight for our rights! That being said, this version of the story reeks of political correctness and this takes away from the original version which was I thought True Love. It was not about the society frowning upon girls being taught how to read... Sorry, could not finish the book.
