Dickens is one of those classic authors whose works are wonderfully suited to the audiobook format. With strong dialogue, unexpected plot twists, and a wide array of characters, this production is superb, thanks to British actor Stephen Fry's expert narration. His exuberant performance brings Pip's coming-of-age story to life with glorious British accents. Dickens is well-known for his colorful characters, and Fry imbues each with a distinctive voice, cadence, and attitude. Whether it's the mysterious Miss Havisham, the imperious Estella, or any of the gruff, meek, earnest, or surly folks that cross Pip's path, Fry's rendition is consistently outstanding. The pace and production are excellent, and the result is one of cinematic clarity. Fry's skill makes this classic well worth a listen.
