Customer Reviews
The Woman in White
I LOVED it! The narrator did a wonderful job making the words come alive for so many incredibly individual characters, and so the entire 25 hours was suspensful. I felt he must be a stage actor...talented. It was pretty much the perfect deal at $10 bucks!
The Woman in White
Superb reading by Gabriel Woolf but tedious Victorian dialog. It's not a page turner by any stretch, but it does pull you along ever so slowly if you have the time.
