Publisher's Summary
After eighteen years as a political prisoner in the Bastille, the ageing Doctor Manette is finally released and reunited with his daughter in England. There the lives of two very different men, Charles Darnay, an exiled French aristocrat, and Sydney Carton, a disreputable but brilliant English lawyer, become enmeshed through their love for Lucie Manette. From the tranquil roads of London, they are drawn against their will to the vengeful, bloodstained streets of Paris at the height of the Reign of Terror, and they soon fall under the lethal shadow of La Guillotine.

Sorry Mr Dickens.
The narrator was pathetic. An American monotone with little understanding of English pronunciation. I had relied on the narration in order to maintain focus throughout a long novel. Unfortunately, the lack of feeling in the reading had the opposite effect. As for the French accents...

Classic English story ruined by an American voice
An American voice immediately off putting as this is an English classic - off to find a version with an English or French reader (Sorry Mr Trant you are the victim of poor casting)
