5 out of 5 stars Exceeds Expectations!   August 16, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I have now listened to three of the five available Dickens' readings from Martin Jarvis and, whilst there are other fine readers out there (e.g. Robert Whitfield for Blackstone Audio Books and Patrick Tull for Recorded Books), I truly don't think there is a finer performer in this particular market.

As Great Expectations unfolds through a vast range of character voices, Mr Jarvis' obvious empathy with the text makes this an effortless yet utterly engaging way for the listener to experience the genius of Dickens, whilst Amazon's price makes this item an absolute bargin.

I cannot recommend Great Expectations read by Martin Jarvis highly enough...




5 out of 5 stars It gets even better under the smooth voice of narrator Martin Jarvis   February 8, 2007
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

GREAT EXPECTATIONS has long been acknowledged as one of Dickens' best, but it gets even better under the smooth voice of narrator Martin Jarvis, an actor who was named Reader of the Year in the UK and who lends his passionate voice to this brilliant unabridged recording. Even prior fans of the novel will discover new nuances listening here to the Cover to Cover Classics version.
