About this listen

When Chadwick Newsome lingers too long in Paris, his mother, a wealthy New England widow, sends her fiancé, Lambert Strether, to fetch him home. Newsome refuses, extending his stay while Strether finds himself lured by the intrigue of Parisian life.

Published in 1903, The Ambassadors is regarded as a masterpiece of American fiction for its exceptional structure, its moral significance, and its depiction of the contrasting New and Old World cultures. Henry James considered this his finest novel.

After 45 minutes, I could take it no longer. The narration of this book is AWFUL! It soulds like a speak and spell toy. There is no infection in this mans voice whatsoever. Don't waste your money on this version.
