An unworkable adaptation
I have enjoyed many dickens novels, both in print and audiobook format and, found this production to be unlistenable because the text is so abridged as to be baffling. It’s kind of like haiku dickens. I had read copper field recently so I skipped ahead to bleak house. Try as a might I couldn’t hang on to the plot… and I’ve read this one before too. After a couple hours I decided it to be pointless. Perhaps those who know the story and have the coles notes at hand to explain what’s going on might enjoy the performances. But this is not a recommended entry point into dickens. I bailed after a couple hours.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
