Bleak House Unabridged Compact Disc

ebooks Download

As the interminable case of Jarndyce and Jarndyce grinds its way through the Court of Chancery, it draws together a disparate group of people: Ada and Richard Clare, whose inheritance is gradually being devoured by legal costs; Esther Summerson, a ward of court, whose parentage is a source of deepening mystery; the menacing lawyer Tulkinghorn; the determined sleuth Inspector Bucket; and even Jo, the destitute little crossing-sweeper. A savage, but often comic, indictment of a society that is rotten to the core, Bleak House is one of Dickens's most ambitious novels, with a range that extends from the drawing rooms of the aristocracy to the poorest of London slums.

Although this is listed as unabridged, be aware that this is the abridged version, 6.5 hours on 6 CDs. Since this is one of my favorite books, I really noticed the cuts. A first-timer might not, but SO much will be missed. Too bad it is mislabeled.
