Pride and Prejudice (version 3)


Read by Karen Savage

(4.8 stars; 4994 reviews)

Pride and Prejudice is the most famous of Jane Austen’s novels, and its opening is one of the most famous lines in English literature - “It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.” Its manuscript was first written between 1796 and 1797, and was initially called First Impressions, but was never published under that title. Following revisions it was published on 28 January 1813 by the same Mr. Egerton of the Military Library, Whitehall, who had brought out Sense and Sensibility. Like both its predecessor and Northanger Abbey, it was written at Steventon Rectory. (Summary from Wikipedia)

Reviews

Brilliant reading by Karen Savage

(5 stars)

My favourite Jane Austen book bought to life by the excellent reading of Karen Savage and much to some people's surprise Karen is an American not British. Her diction is superb. when she pronounces certain words : i.e enquiry, her American accent comes through. Truly a joy to listen to

Thank you, it was fun.

(5 stars)

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.

(5 stars)

My favourite version of Pride and Prejudice - excellent reading, clean and clear. Pleasant and easy to listen to - this must be my fifth run at least because I enjoy KS's reading so much.

Excellent

(5 stars)

Superb reading by Karen Savage. I had previously read Sense and Sensibility and was in love with it, but I now believe this to be my new favourite from Jane Austen.

Great audio of a great book

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.

Great!
