Acerca de esta escucha

David Timson talks about Charles Dickens, much loved for his great contribution to classic English Literature. Listen to The Pickwick Papers narrated by Anton Lesser.

The Pickwick Papers, Dickens' first novel, is a glorious romp through the pre-Reform Bill England of 1827. Traveling by stage-coach, the innocent but well-intentioned Pickwick and his equally naive friends, all in search of "interesting scenes and characters," are repeatedly saved from disaster by the resourceful and quick-witted Sam Weller.

Listen to The Pickwick Papers by Charles Dickens.

This isn't an introduction, such as one you might find in a text. Rather, it is a collection of excerpts. It is, however, enjoyable.

Not quite an introduction.

David Timson’s performance of Pickwick Papers made me eager to hear his take on the book he read so unerringly. Unfortunately, after an accurate but perfunctory summation of the novel’s origins and general shape, there followed nothing but extended extracts of the recording I had just finished. Thinking at first that these were examples of characterization or style that would be elucidated later, I kept listening. But no, just extracts.

No big deal, considering that it was free. Still, thought I’d let other listeners know.
