Gulliver's Travels

True Classic

(5 stars)

This book proved to me why it is a classic. The reading could have been better but I feel that is a matter of taste more than any measure of qaulity of this audio book. I tend to prefer dramatic readings by multiple readers playing the different parts.

How could Swift write this??? Amazing

Amazing this story. Thanks for the accurate and well recorded reading. But I had some trouble listening for although it is read clearly and with a very nice voice, I felt like the reader sometimes perhaps didn't really feel anything about the story herself. That comes across like a mechanical reading somehow. I couldn't concentrate anymore especially during the more complex parts. This is just my personal taste. Still thanks so much and five points fully deserving.

once again Mrs Driver did a wonderful job. very interesting book as well. my only question is if the saying " a bunch of Yahoo's" or " don't act like a Yahoo" came from this book? I used to hear my grandpa use that expression a lot.

Flawless Reading

The reading is perfect for this classic book, which probably goes over some people's heads because it not the cartoonish Gulliver they expect. It is subtle and profound, a brilliant satire, just exactly what the reader delivers. I've listened to the whole book twice and will listen again. It's that good!

Great book

One reviewer expressed that the style of reading perfectly fit the feeling intended by the author. That comment resonated with me so clearly that I wanted to repeat it. I didn’t notice it while listening as I was consumed with the story itself. It came across with the tone of non fiction allowing the listener to enjoy the feeling of hearing an actual autobiography. A dramatized version would have been a distraction I think. Thank you for an excellent production.

Gulliver's Travels is great

Really good,but bad reader:( it sounded like she was forced to read this book and did it unwillingly she was super slow at reading and her pausing was about 3 seconds but otherwise it's a really good book it may seem boring in the introduction but it just tells you about his life

Classic book, good recording

I didn't realize what a strange book this is -- quite viciously misanthropic towards the end. Very enjoyable reading though. The recording is very good. The reader's deadpan delivery is perfect for this kind of satire. The sound quality is mostly very good.

wonderful story with a soothing narrator

This story is magical, inspiring and read by a lovely calming voice. A new favourite for my partner and I.
