All I know is that I checked this out from the library expecting it to be annoying because of the other review, and expecting to just have it play in the background while I ignored it.

Disturbing readings...
This collection is terribly read, especially the woman's voice, the strange crying tune she had bothered me so much that none of the words registered. If you like to buy an audio reading of poems, I highly recommend the collection producted by BBC, it is so far the best.

Drew Me In,

This review is from: Eighty-One Famous Poems: An Audio Companion to the Norton Anthology of Poetry (Audio Cassette)
All I know is that I checked this out from the library expecting it to be annoying because of the other review, and expecting to just have it play in the background while I ignored it. But I figured why not it's from the library & to my surprise, I was quickly drawn in. I will expand on this review as soon as possible (at the moment I am only briefly near a computer). But I think these readings are sensitive, subtle, lyrical & the collection exquisite (see table of contents). I really did not find the woman's voice to be screechy at all, in fact it is very calm but maybe a bit too formal. She reads a large segment on the first side of the first tape right after the cuckoo song, (actually until 200 for those who have a tape counter) but afterwards very little. Again, a better description on the way.
