Pride and Prejudice, with Songs from Regency England
批評家のレビュー
S.J.H. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award, 2022
"A bright, lively narration by Alison Larkin makes listening to Jane Austen's classic an experience not to be missed. She sounds as if she can't wait to tell this delicious story, and she doesn't disappoint. Larkin makes sure all the characters' motives are believable - from frantic Mrs. Bennet to laconic Mr. B; from social-climbing Mr. Collins to devious Wyckham. Darcy's and Elizabeth's repartee is especially sharp. Spritely bursts of music between chapters, which emphasize the atmosphere, and an added scene written by Larkin, take listeners to the Bennets' drawing room, where the exuberant, if untrained, voice of Mary Bennet sings 'The Lonely Ash Grove', 'Ye Banks and Braes', and 'Down by the Salley Gardens'. Larkin's sparkling performance is a perfect fit for audio." (AudoFile)
"Raised in England by adoptive parents, Alison Larkin was actually born in America. She herself is a comic writer and performer - and she approaches Austen as a satirist - she has genuine theatrical skill...sustained comic creations. The voice reveals all." (David Denby, The New Yorker)
あらすじ・解説
Jane Austen's most famous novel, Pride and Prejudice is brought to sparkling new life in this "wonderful, unforgettable" recording from AudioFile Earphones award-winning narrator Alison Larkin.
Always a witty and original voice, Alison Larkin follows her narration of Pride and Prejudice with songs from Regency England, to give the listener a sense of what after dinner family entertainment might have sounded like in Jane Austen's time.
Recorded in a drawing room not unlike the Bennets', a young lady who sounds suspiciously like Mary Bennet sings The Lonely Ash Grove, Ye Banks and Braes, and Down by the Salley Gardens, making up in vocal enthusiasm what she lacks in polish.
