This is not my favorite Austen Novel. But they are all worth listening to and enjoying. Susanna Harker reads beautifully. I think she reads in such a way as to draw you completely into the story and forget who is reading it. She is never distracting. I've listened to part of this novel read by a couple of other narrators and this is my favorite.

Excellent

I am not quite sure why I selected this version, read by Susannah Harker, but it turned out to be a highly fortunate choise. Miss Harker's reading is superb throughout. She manages to impersonate all the male and female characters with great subtlety and without the ridiculous changes of pitch and volume employed by some audio book readers. This is an absolute joy to listen to. And at a good price, too. Let's have some more from this reader.

Harker does an excellent job

Sense and Sensibility is an early work by Jane Austen and her perfect Miss Dashwood a little too old and wise for her age. Beautifully written though, full of clever observations and sensitive interactions amongst the characters.

Fabulous Jane Austen. Not her best but still wonderful.

Although I always thought I should appreciate Jane Austens classics, I found them impenetrable to read. This excellent performance by Susannah Harker made Sense and Sensibility both fascinating and funny.

Performance made sense of a classic

Susannah Harker is the perfect narrator for Jane Austen. Wonderful. I wish she could read all of them and will look out for other writers she may have ‘performed’ / narrated.

Brilliant performance
