Unabridged Audiobook
I have tried to read the book for so many years, but struggling with the language gave up. at last being able to listen to it I have finished it... oh my goodness what a wonderful story, such a timeless tale of love, poverty, family and grief. read it, listen to it... you will be glad you did! the narrator's voice is so well fitted, he gives enough animation to the characters without it becoming annoying and you just want to keep on listening... to the point where I am going to see if he's read anything else I fancy
OMG. One depressing thing after another. SPOILER ALERT!! There is not a happy ending to this sad sad story of a Milk Maid whose done nothing wrong in her life.
Such a good book. Im so sad it is over. It was the first audiobook that i actually listened to outside of my car because i couldn’t wait until my next drive to see what happened.
Very strong story of a young and pure heart. So old and so actual, because circumstances may have changed, but the evil of the naivety and parents selfish role in the raising of a kid is the same nowadays
A wonderful book, which I read as a school set work. A fantastic picture of Victorian Dorset and society. The narrator was excellent.
A great listen!
A classic tale with many twists well read by a single reader
A disappointing ending The narrator was good
Well read
I was spell bound!!!! I would have never actually read this. But listening I could not put it down!!!
Sad... but beautifully written.. a must read
it was really sad, but an amazing tale none the less. I definitely recommend giving it a read
Quite a story, I am sure it was like that on that time period
wonderful, heartbreaking, a story for all times.
I have struggled to get into this story, made it to chapter 6 and had to walk away.
Loved it
Wonderful story well read.
I loved it! I just wish it would have ended better but it still was a great book. The narrator was very good too.
Since this was a book about a young woman's life, it would have been easier to listen to and get into the main character if the narrator were a woman instead of a man. Having a man using a pretend female voice when Tess was speaking, took away from the story. Other than that, I'm glad I finally listened to this book.
Great narration of a wonderful story that I have intended to read for years, yet never found the time to do so!
