Özet

The scene of this entertaining story is laid in a charming English village. The plot centres round Miss Barbara Buncle, a maiden lady who was obliged to write a book because – as she naively explained – her dividends were so poor. Unfortunately, Miss Buncle had no imagination, so she wrote about her friends – quite kindly and truthfully, of course, for she was a benevolent and veracious soul.

The reactions of her friends to Miss Buncle’s book, however, were a little surprising, and the far-reaching and unexpected results of its publication caused quite a stir.

I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the light hearted nature of this book and have already bought the next in the series.

A lovely listen

I was unsure of this story at first but as it got going for me I found I had to know what happened next, I liked that the villagers didn't like what they read when they realised it was about them and that some changed for the better. It's easy to see how one person can stir up enough hate and go on a 'witch' hunt when the truth hurts so much but refuse to see it. At the end I couldn't stop listening and just had to carry on to find out. I was undecided whether to get this book from recommendations that came up on the list but so glad I did :-)

This is a lovely story. It’s the kind of book you can listen to/read over and over again. It’s very funny, and it’s heart-warming. The narrator is very talented, expertly performing all the voices – both male and female. The book was published in 1934, and it’s very interesting to see little details of life in those days – such as attitudes of the time, and the prices of everyday items. I highly recommend this book, it’s wholesome and beautifully written

A wonderful book - gentle, humourous, kind and old fashioned in the very best sense. It shows a picture of village life before the war, the alliances and petty rivalries and what happens when one of the villagers writes a book exposing their hidden secrets (good and bad). It's the sort of book to relax into, to listen to on a sunny summer afternoon with a glass of Pimms. It is as quintessentially English as cricket and home made scones. A lovely listen beautifully read.

A very English book

How I would have loved to have written 'Miss Buncle's Book' - what a joy it is! I found it a skilfully written, gentle and very funny book. The fantastical plot is rooted in the kind of English village life which I recognise from living in my English village today. D. E. Stevenson's characters are true to type; when they do unbelievable things,it doesn't jar or irritate but amuses.This audible version is well read by Patricia Gallimore.

What a great listen!
