Would you try another book from Nadine Gordimer and/or Nadia May?
I have tremendous respect for Gordimer and would say that this book is excellently written. It is however, filled with long political conversations and lots of descriptive language. Not the best choice for an audio book.What was one of the most memorable moments of Burger's Daughter?
The portrait of South Africa was fascinating to me. (I'm married to a South African.) The novel gives a lot of historical insight.How could the performance have been better?
The recording seems old and the audio quality is not great. Sometimes the recording repeats a few sentences, as if clips were badly spliced. DisappointingWas Burger's Daughter worth the listening time?
Eh ... I can't say I really enjoyed listening to it, but I am glad to have the novel in my memory. Kind of like a school assignment that you look back on fondly.Any additional comments?
I wish I could recommend this book because I do have tremendous respect for Nadine Gordimer. She crafts incredible sentences and the novel is full of heart. But it isn't a great audiobook.A challenging book to listen to

Despite everything started above, this book is still worth a listen for its own sake. Although, if you can find a physical copy that's probably a better option.
Great book, but doesn't lend well to narration

The reader is not the greatest, unfortunately. Her speech style, of weaving one word into the other breathlessly, combined with an exceedingly old-style English (like my neighbour, dear old... old Mrs. Walker, in the 70s) is quite unpleasant.
I wouldn't recommend this Audible (although, the novel itself may be worth reading in person--I'm not sure).
I just didn't make it to the end

No wonder she won the Nobel Prize for literature!
