Long overshadowed by Jane Eyre, Villette is widely admired as one of Charlotte Bronte's finest works. This story of a young teacher at a girlâ¿¿s school in the city of Villette is a particular challenge for the young reader, for it requires maturity of vision, a fine narrative sense - and a command of French! Mandy Weston, a newcomer to Naxos AudioBooks, tells the story magnificently.©2007 Naxos Rights International (P)2007 Naxos Rights International Classics Coming of Age Genre Fiction Literary Fiction

My impulse purchase of Vileltte on a £3.99 deal was a stroke of genius. I loved the story of Lucy Snowe - a mature masterpiece by Charlotte Bronte - I can believe it is not more well known. I am utterly taken in and want to start listening to it again. Today!

Completely compelling

This is a beautifully written novel whose heroine is wonderfully understated and her character unfolds gently as the novel progresses to its climax. The ending had me crying buckets (with sadness or happiness I won’t say as I don’t want to spoil the ending for those who haven’t read it).
My only criticism is there is a lot of French but I managed to find a free version of the text and used google translate so as not to miss out on the meaning.
Overall I really enjoyed this novel. It has a lot of depth to it and Charlotte Brontë is a great writer. The narrator is wonderful.

I grew impatient at times, but there are some lovely bits to this book and it really is fantastically well read. Mandy Weston somehow manages to make Lucy Snowe a warmer, fuller character yet without betraying the spirit of the text. I'm not sure about giving the characters French accents when their words are translated, but I suppose it was an easy way to distinguish characters.

Wonderfully read

I had started this book and was not enamoured or sympathetic to the heroine. I thought her self satisfied and precious. I lost the book and so downloaded this version. Thanks to Mandy Weston's brilliant rendition my sympathies about faced and I loved and empathised with Lucy Snow. Please can we have much much more of Mandy Weston's lovely and tallented voice. She is a very welcome edition to Audible Books. It makes such a difference to a book as to who is reading aloud.

Fascinating and Brilliant

A story that sometimes needs patience from the reader, but that patience can be wonderfully rewarded.

I find this novel, together with "Shirley", to be just as rewarding as "Jane Eyre".
