Harlan does a good job of the narration
Everybody knows the book so this is just about the narration which is quite good, although towards the end he seems a bit tired of it and rushing to finish 😂

Bizarre
I certainly wasn’t expecting American southern accents or Mexican accents, morphing into German accents. And what’s with the weird “goat” noises all the way through?
It’s like a car crash - horrifying but I couldn’t turn away out of fascination

The worst narration
Unlistenable, Alice in wonderland should never be narrated by Americans. Emphasis all wrong, just painful

Destroyed
I never thought that it would be possible to completely ravage one of the greatest childrens books ever written, but you managed it. Who decided on this narrator who drifted between Deep South,Scottish, Irish, everything but English. Absolutely appalling, you should hold your heads in shame.

Through the looking glass into the USA
I got midway through the Humpty Dumpty chapter and couldn't listen anymore .. The American accents didn't do t for me and it seemed almost , "improvised" rather than read . . An interesting interpretation but as I've never read./heard the book before I found it to be distracting rather than engaging.
