THE BUCCANEERS

Unfinished by Edith Wharton, The Buccaneers was completed by Marion Mainwaring. Wharton illuminates aristocratic society in turn-of-the-century America and England through a cast of memorable characters who unwaveringly carry out etiquette and tradition. Pristine images of character and countryside leap from the text with Cassidy's lyrical narration. She brilliantly renders each character with vocal versatility which discerns the personality, emotion, class and spirit of each. The audio quality awakens one's sensibilities to the depth, richness and honesty of the quintessential romance that embodies this novel. You'll feel disappointed when the story and the audio experience conclude. J.K.R. Winner of AUDIOFILE Earphones Award ©AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: OCT 94]
