What the critics say

"You will learn more about life, your own and other people's, from Middlemarch, Madame Bovary or Moby-Dick than you are likely to from yards and yards of memoir."( The Times)

The best audio reading of Moby Dick extant.

Loved the way the narrator read this. It felt like sitting next to someone listening to them tell you a story. Wonderful.
