À propos de cet audio

Cluny Brown refuses to know her place in society. Last week, she took herself to tea at the Ritz. Then she spent almost an entire day in bed eating oranges. So, to teach her discipline, her uncle, a plumber who has raised the orphaned girl since she was a baby, sends her into service as a parlor maid at one of England's stately manor houses.

At Friars Carmel in Devonshire, Cluny meets her employers: Sir Henry, the quintessential country squire, and Lady Carmel, who oversees the management of her home with unruffled calm. Their son, Andrew, newly returned from abroad with a Polish emigre writer friend, is certain the country is once again on the brink of war. Then there's Andrew's beautiful fiancee and the priggish town pharmacist.

While everyone around her struggles to keep pace with a rapidly changing world, Cluny continues to be Cluny, transforming those around her with her infectious zest for life.

I had so much fun listening to this story! Cluny is a bright, delightful, whimsical character with whom everyone is bound to fall a little bit in love! Her honest spirit and open heart lead her to adventures big and small. I had no idea I was listening to a novel written more than a half-century ago until I heard the end credits. The story feels and reads like contemporary fiction. If this is what Margery Sharp wrote, I’ll be looking for more of her work. And the narration by Anna Parker-Naples could not be better. I loved every minute.

So much fun!

A warmhearted story of a girl who simply would not stay in the box every one tried to put her into.
Margery Sharp’s characters are so delightful that one feels quite sad when you have to say goodbye to them.

Just wonderful
