Missing words and names mid sentence ruined this

Classic story that was in general narrated well but I became infuriated by the repeated oddity of place names simply omitted mid sentence. There was also other fluffs such as repeated paragraphs. Call me pedantic but these just ruin the flow of a story for me. I would be tempted to try one of the other versions of this if you're likely to feel similarly.

A solid piece of work

A well-loved story which barely needs review. Most people have ether read it or seen an adaptation (most of which are excellent) so no doubt your opinion on the work itself is decided. But the efforts of Emma Messenger on the narration shouldn't go unacknowledged; she makes light work of difficult reading material and her characters are brilliantly read and conducive to utter absorption.

read by an American?

at the start the narrator has an American accent. by the end no such accent is in e evidence. sounds all wrong. acting of parts is not very good.

relaxing

Would you listen to Pride And Prejudice again? Why?

Wanted something to help me sleep

What did you like best about this story?

It's classic and easy going.

Did Emma Messenger do a good job differentiating each of the characters? How?

A fair a job as anyone could do I suppose

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I listening for a bout 6 hours in one go so I guess so.

Any additional comments?

Audio books l ok me this are the best way to relax and get a good night sleep

Read very well

The character voices given to this book could have been jarring if done in an over the top way, but they have not been, and add to the story well. I did notice a few, not alterations, but additions of a few sentences to the book in places where the old fashioned language could be misunderstood for a modern audience. Not a flaw with this audio book, just a comment.

A really good performance of a classic. However I would change Mrs Bennetts voice!
