Good book but the narration was very spotty in quality. Several of the female narrators had very difficult to understand accents which compromised the listening experience. The book is wonderful and a number of the narrators were extraordinary so I still recommend it but one must be patient.

Difficult to understand to narrators

Couldn't finish it. First, the writing is too descriptive, making it hard to follow the story line. Second, some of the narrators are impossible to understand. I think I need to read a hard copy and don't have time to do so. This book is dead to me.

A few instances exist where the movie is better than the book, this is such a one.
