About this audiobook

Jane Austen is one of the founders of classic novels for women. Her most famous novel Pride and Prejudice is rightfully considered to be the masterpiece of the world literature. Walter Scott, Somerset Maugham, Virginia Woolf and Richard Aldington admired the talented “first Lady” of the English literature. Wittily and directly described actions of the novel happen in provincial England in the end of eighteenth century. For about two hundred years readers have been mesmerised by the love story of Mr. Darcy and Miss Elizabeth who managed to correct the mistake of pride and prejudice.

Famous works of the author Jane Austen: Sense and Sensibility, Pride and Prejudice, Mansfield Park, Emma, Northanger Abbey, Persuasion, Lady Susan.

Ratings and reviews

The reader's voice sounds robotic and emotionless, almost as if she's actually a deep fake reading this. It's deep into the uncanny valley to the point where it distracted me too much to relax and fall asleep. At 4¢, I guess you get what you pay for?

Reader has a nice British English accent, but some words mispronounced. It's hard to listen to as she sounds like a monotone run-on sentence.

The narration is not great. Very basic and not much animation or feeling. Sounds like if you were reading it aloud with a friend or family member. Not what I paid for and couldn’t finish it.
