Awful Voice of Reader!!!

Any additional comments?

What a disappointment! The first story on both the American and British collections is read by a woman whose melodramatic, annoyingly-lilting reading style is quite unbearable. I simply cannot understand why they would have chosen her to read at all. I think I am going to have to ask for my credits back.

terrible voice

I loved all the stories in this collection, but the narrator's voice was dreadful: forced, unnatural and devoid of any emotion. I had to force myself to listen to the stories and now avoid this narrator's readings. Unfortunately, she seems to have a monopoly on some really great collections.
