About this listen
The Four Swans is the sixth novel in Winston Graham's sweeping series of Cornwall, Poldark.
Cornwall 1795-1797. Although Ross Poldark – now something of a war hero – seems secure in his hard-won prosperity, a new dilemma faces him in the sudden infatuation of a young naval officer for his wife Demelza.
All four women – the four swans – whose lives touch Ross’s, face a crisis in these years. For his wife Demelza, his old love Elizabeth, his friend’s new wife Caroline and for the unhappy Morwenna Chynoweth these are times of stress and conflict.
The Four Swans is followed by the seventh book in the Poldark series, The Angry Tide.

If you could sum up The Four Swans in three words, what would they be?
Winston Graham's masterful and engaging writing combined with Oliver J. Hembrough's equally masterful impersonation of the dozens of vivid characters leave listerners of all six audio books waiting impatiently for the release of the last six of the Poldark series.What other book might you compare The Four Swans to, and why?
The other Poldark books by Winston Graham.What about Oliver J. Hembrough’s performance did you like?
Oliver J. Hembrough captures not just the individual persons, but the entire, long, complex scene described by Winston Graham. It is like listening to a one-man theater where each character is shown the utmost care and carefully imbued with personality. After listening for a while, one is completely submerged in the ocean of the late 1700s; long gone, but not forgotten, its struggle for survival, its shivering cold and its blazing heat; an ocean remembered by Winston Graham and brought to life by Oliver J. Hembrough.Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Absolutely. It is a good thing that chapters exist, considering the length of Winston Graham's capturing books and the very best quality of performance by Oliver J. Hembrough and also by Clare Corbett in book number two.Any additional comments?
Extremely well done first half dozen!Extremely well done first half dozen!
