WUTHERING HEIGHTS

This audiobook offers a good introduction to Brontë’s romantic tale of the tormented relationship between Heathcliff and Cathy, two of the best known protagonists in nineteenth-century literature. Nadia May gives a spirited reading; she characterizes voices with enthusiasm but handles female voices more successfully than male ones. In all, May’s overall tone is so strident that it becomes somewhat irritating. C.R.A. ©AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: MAR 93]
