  • Wonderful

    I've been listening to this podcast for the past few weeks while walking to and from work. I'd read 'Tess' many years ago, and this really brought it back to me. It is beautifully read by Adrian Praetzellis. The podcast is wonderfully evocative and listening to it was a truly memorable sublime experience. Thank you.
