Juliet Stevenson reads this short, moving novel perfectly, bringing nuanced emotion to all the interesting, multidimensional characters. I read this in college and didn’t appreciate then how forward-thinking and looking Forster was in his view of love relationships and marriage as an equal partnership between a man and a woman. It did not occur to me that Room With A View is a feminist text. But it is in the best humanist sense — showing how a woman could not know her own desires in a society that repressed them but how she could learn to recognize her own sense of self and life when set free to do so. Beautiful and inspiring and full of real truth and compassion, brought to life perfectly by Juliet Stevenson.

Beautifully Written and Read

The problem with audible is that you can't return things. I kept thinking something was missing in these characters. The abridged versions should be marked as well as the unabriged. Won't make that mistake again.

Anyway, interesting view of life and a good narrator.

It seems as if the one thing everyone in the world can agree upon is that Juliet Stevenson is an absolutely brilliant narrator. No one matches the intelligence of the choices she makes for character voices, line readings, and calm, steady storytelling. She never goes overboard in her delivery. She's supremely tasteful without for an instant being bland.

This is a delightful romantic drawing room comedy of sorts. Forster's insight into his characters puts into the category of "literature" and his characters always surprise. It is a wonderfully entertaining novel on the page, perhaps even more delightful in this audio version.

Wonderful novel, brilliant reader

Though it is an abridged version, this is the best reading I have found, and it is very entertaining. Juliet Stevenson gives just a perfect reading. She has the gift of playing the parts of each of the characters and it feels more like she is telling the story rather than merely reading it aloud. I almost dropped one star because it is abridged, but in the end I decided it deserved all 5 stars.

The best reading

I love Forster, and as well done as the movie is, the book is even better.

I love Juliet Stevenson’s reading of this lovely book. It’s a pretty riveting story — a little dramatic, maybe, but I enjoyed it all the same. And Stevenson makes it come alive!

Stevenson reads beautifully

Wonderful story and wonderfully read by Juliet. I’ve loved this book since I was a young teenager and read it at least once a year, thanks to this version I am sure I shall be hearing it all again on a more regular basis!
Highly recommend it 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
