Title: Audio edition--Warning
Review: The novel itself turned out to be better than I had expected it to be after listening to the first part on the audio cd set. However, the content of the novel is not the topic of this review, the audio edition is. I had been assigned the book for my Lit class and figured the audio version would help me understand the writing. However, I never even finished listening to the CDs. First of all, the narrator's voice is so gravelly and unappealing that it was a low-level version of torture to listen to. Secondly, the writing is difficult enough to follow on page, but on audio with no writing or punctuation to go from, the story is nearly impossible to follow. Unless you have no other option, go for the print version of this book- the audiobook will only frustrate you.
Is the review positive or negative?
