Japanese noblewoman Murasaki Shikibu wrote The Tale of Genji in the 11th century to entertain the other women in the court. It follows the romantic exploits of the title character, an emperor’s son, as he navigates life within aristocratic society and eventually outside of it. Praised for its psychological insight into the characters’ motivations, the book greatly influenced Japanese culture and is widely considered the world’s first novel. In 1882, Suematsu Kencho translated a condensed version of the text into English, allowing this classic tale to reach a wider audience.

The book is such a beautiful story and reminds somehow so fresh in many aspects yet the whole experience was ruined for me by the reader. Since this is an audio book how the reader delivers the story to the listener is of great importance. In my opinion in this unfortunate case the reader feels robotic and devoid of any capacity to produce emotions. She rushes through the words at neck breaking speed and the whole thing feels off.

It was painful to listen to.

would likely have been an interesting story if not for the incredibly dull monotone delivery of the voice actress

The Tale of Genji is a masterpiece of world literature, this audio version doesn’t do it justice. The readers voice is totally flat, there’s no modulation or expressiveness in the voice. Read the actual book or find a different version.

Disappointing

I loved the tale of Genji a lot for the language that it used was exquisite. But the voice I felt did not portray the writings as well as I would wish. The voice was a bit robotics and didn’t portray how poetic the words were. Still I think it was great for the story was interesting and fun to listen too.

Great story but less great voice

The story was spoiled by the very disappointing narration. It was a struggle to finish this audiobook.
