Meeting by chance at a gambling hall in Europe, the separate lives of Daniel Deronda and Gwendolen Harleth are immediately intertwined. Daniel, an Englishman of uncertain parentage, becomes Gwendolyn's redeemer as she finds herself drawn to his spiritual and altruistic nature after a loveless marriage. But Daniel's path was already set when he rescued a young Jewess from suicide.
Daniel Deronda, George Eliot's final novel, is a remarkable work, encompassing themes of religion, imperialism and gender within its broad and fascinating scope.

Juliette Stevenson reads all the characters with richness and vigor and makes them as real as any I've heard on audiobooks. She elucidated the novel through her performance and I throughly enjoyed her.
Sweepingly Beautiful Story

As a movie lover, I understand why a successful acting career is one of the highest paid professions. The hours of pleasure from well loved actors and movies cannot be measured. Still, when I think of the even greater number of hours spent with audio books I know that talented readers like Juliette Stevenson are even more valuable. They alone must bring the original material to life. The writer paints a picture but the reader must bring it to life, alone with only words. No cast of actors or scenery to share the burden.
Narration is, too me an underappreciated art, as valuable and worthy of an Academy award as any movie actor’s work.
Having said all that to say that Juliet Stevenson is the best of the best.
Juliet Stevenson has a gift and is a gift.

This one is no exception. Remarkable characters. Fine use of language. A very intriguing mix of plots that some think should have made two distinct stories. I disagree wholeheartedly with that notion. The mix is what gives the story its “pop.”
In fact, it makes it possible for her to have crafted one of the finest novels about Jews and, in some ways, Judaism that one will find anywhere.
It’s more than that, of course. But it’s masterful in undertaking those complex issues in the broader context of Victorian England, while weaving together with it fascinating characters (such as Gwendolyn) and their stories at the same time.
This may not be Middlemarch. But since you can’t always read a Middlemarch, you can still do exceptional!
Juliet Stevenson NEVER disappoints in narration. So, there’s another reason to add this book to your list!
