5.0 out of 5 stars
remembrance of things past, August 8, 2005
This review is from: Remembrance of Things Past (Naxos Audio) (Audio CD)
This is my all-time favorite book. The reader is excellent; he has a real feel for Proust and his writing, his diction is great--his voice and tone show that he understands the book very well and appreciates it.
I was disappointed that the book is abridged, but that's not his fault.
The book kept me alert on a recent 9-hour drive, plus return. Since I'm almost 77, I'm extremely grateful for that--and am delighted to have these wonderful CD's.

Proust Abridged?, October 19, 2010
This review is from: Remembrance of Things Past (Naxos Audio) (Audio CD)
Proust abridged is an oxymoron, isn't it? A bit like looking at a Picasso only after rearranging the facial features. What a shame. Nicely produced, but buyer beware--this is not the entire novel.
