Nimoy's narration was spot on!
This is my first Evelyn Waugh's short story and it was quite enjoyable. I miss Leonard Nimoy and wished he narrated more books. This story was bittersweet and quite fitting during our covid isolation... it just ended too soon. I didn't actually read that this story was broadcasted live (all I read was Leonard Nimoy was narrating it and I bought it), so it has live audience's laughing and clapping in it. A bit distracting, but not too much. I definitely will look forward to reading more of Mr Waugh's stories and recommend this short story.
