3.0 out of 5 stars The Wind in the Willows, May 12, 2007
This review is from: The Wind in the Willows (Audio CD)
I waited with such anticipation for the audiobook version of a very favourite book. Sadly, I was disappointed. Kenneth Grahame's words are wonderful - to be savoured, absorbed, and enjoyed. I was soon frustrated by this recording as the sheer speed of the reading did not allow for the formation of mind pictures or imagining Mole busily spring-cleaning his house, appreciating the wonderful exchange of conversation between the characters. I quickly decided to give away the audiobook. However, I don't really want to pass it on to others, either. I so want others to appreciate the wonderful story of the little mole who found he could come out of the darkness and live in the light, that I would not like anyone's introduction to it to be this recording. I am aware this narrator has a large volume of wonderful work, but perhaps a quintessentially British story is not suited to this voice.
