About this listen

Este audiolibro está narrado en castellano.

El gran friso narrativo de los Episodios Nacionales sirvió de vehículo a Benito Pérez Galdós (1843-1920) para recrear en él, novelescamente engarzada, la totalidad de la compleja vida de los españoles - guerras, política, vida cotidiana, reacciones populares - a lo largo del agitado siglo XIX. En el 19 de marzo y el 2 de mayo, las intrigas cortesanas en que se ve envuelto Gabriel de Araceli trascienden del palacio a la calle y refuerzan el malestar popular y el odio al favorito Godoy, situación que culmina en el "motín de Aranjuez ", del que Gabriel es testigo, así como en los inmediatos sucesos que provocan la invasión de España por Napoleón y el ardoroso levantamiento de los españoles.

Benito Pérez Galdós fue un escritor, dramaturgo, político y cronista español que vivió entre 1843 y 1920. Es principalmente conocido por haber escrito los Episodios Nacionales entre 1872 y 1912.

As on the date of this review (18/07/2024 the book title on Audible,co,uk is, literally, "Episodios nacionales: 9 de Marzo y 2 de Mayo", which contains a typo. It should be "19 de Marzo", ten days later(!). The fact that the book cover contains a typo tells you all you need to know about the quality contorl on the production and editing process on this audiobook. The narrator has a very pleasant deep voice, but reads like a total new comer to the book (and to Madrid), pausing as if a sentence was completed and then resuming when (upon turning the page, I guess) discovering that it continues. This happens many times. Plus, the chapter numbers have been inserted into the audio in a weird way, and there are occasional messy edits elsewhere. A pity that the recording is such low quality, as the story itself is great.
