If you could sum up The Bertrams in three words, what would they be?

insightful, innovative author

What didn’t you like about Flo Gibson’s performance?

She is just plain awful. Her voice quality is really bad. Her voice is so hard and raspy. I don't understand why she is narrating so many of these wonderful works.

This fabulous author deserves a better narrator

I love Anthony Trollope, and have tried to listen to every one of his books. I tried to get through this one 3 times, but the narrator is awful. So bad, that within a few minutes I just had a headache. I got through the first 6 or 7 chapters and just had to give up. I wish they would redo this one with Timothy West.

Terrible Narration

As a lover of British Literature, I highly recommend Anthony Trollope’s works his use of language to color all the characters is amusing and his storylines are engaging.

“The Bertrams” did not disappoint.

Another Trollope classic

What a shame this reader will discourage listeners from the joys of Anthony Trollope. She ruins the experience. Her voice only deserves these adjectives: monotonous, querulous, irritating, untrained. It's like having to sit through a 26-hour Christmas dinner with an elderly, dreary aunt.

Stay away from this reader!
