I love this book. I couldn't be happier with Karen's narration. The reviews are no exaggeration.

Thank you, it was fun.

Karen Savage's voice acting for Mrs Benette is so absurd, yet so consistent, that she transformed from my most hated character to my most loved. Karen managed to bring to life the sarcasm that Jane Austen have injected into her characters, without over selling those who don't need it, like Lydia. It was fun, thank you.

a masterpiece

Such a great book deserved no less than such a skilled reader. Every single character's personality is felt through Karen Savage's reading. Truly admirable.

Ms. Savage's Reading of Ms. Austin's Time - Wonderfully evocative or ?

I am very pleased with Ms. Savage's reading of the book, as she (to me) seems lovely and charming and thus "of that time and place" so vividly set down by Ms. Austin." But I am just another American (male), and so I do wonder what might a person with more breeding, or closer location of birth might say about reading the great Austin's works.? Several reviewers felt the reading rushed. Some liked it just so. I was lucky to find such a website, dealing with the issues of time and place, and what did they sound like back then? https://austenauthors.net/the-sound-of-austen/ Of course, we have many films to hear the words in their way, also. Again, I'm charmed by Ms. Savage. And Ms. Austin. Thank you, Librivox and Internet Archive.

Die Sprecherin leistet fantastische Arbeit!

Ich habe mir die von karen savage vorgelesen Version dieses Buches bestimmt schon ein dutzend mal angehört und es wird nie langweilig. Sie hat einfach ein unglaubliches Talent, die Figuren förmlich zum Leben zu erwecken. Außerdem ist ihre Aussprache klar und deutlich, man versteht jedes Wort, das ist ja bei englischen Sprechern oft nicht der Fall, wenn man nicht Muttersprachler ist. Ich habe mir auch andere von ihr vorgetragene Werke angehört. Schade, dass sie nicht mehr Bücher aufgenommen hat.

Amazing!

This was the first book I listened to after downloading Librivox, and I spent the entire day transfixed! I will definitely be following with more Austen (and anything else) read by Karen Savage as she is an absolute delight to listen to. Lovely voice, masterful delivery, and she gives just the right amount of consistent personality to each character to make a wonderful story truly shine.

The one you will not stop listening to

Very well read. Characters come to life with Karen Savage's warm and inspired performance. The book is not in need of further review, but if you want to hear the read by only one additional artist you should give this one a try. Thank you for your time and effort, Karen.
