JANE EYRE

Juliet Stevenson captures both the strength and vulnerability of Charlotte Brontë's famous heroine. Her light, clear voice gives Jane lively character and is a fine complement to the heroine. Rochester speaks in a slightly lower register, but is equally effective. She uses pace and cadence to keep the listener eagerly awaiting each turn and twist. Though there are many complete versions of the novel, this abridgment is graced with an excellent narration to bring the classic to new listeners.
