About this listen

Here is a tale straight from the fireside. We are compelled to follow the humble and mysterious figure of the linen weaver Silas Marner, on his journey from solitude and exile to the warmth and joy of family life. His path is a strange one; when he loses his hoard of hard-earned coins all seems to be lost, but in place of the golden guineas come the golden curls of a child - and from desolate misery comes triumphant joy.

Brilliant reading of a difficult text to read

Silas Marner is a novel that requires, when read to oneself from the text, patience and a sense of historical time and place to permit its extraordinary cumulative power to register. Few if any readers of audiobooks, in my experience, could manage the quiet, sustained and yet engaged delivery required to come up to it. Anna Bentinck's rendition astonished me, therefore, for she not only caught it exactly but, by doing so, managed to bring out the power of passages that had never caught my attention when reading the text myself. I recommend her reading of the book very highly.
