Editorial reviews
Family feuds, treachery and deceit ultimately lead to wrongs set right and life renewed. Hawthorne's novel resounds with the literary style of his age. Roslyn Alexander's pleasant voice gives the story an uplifting and positive tone. The text, most of which is narration, benefits from her lighter style of narration. She performs female voices more successfully than male voices, which tend to sound strained. Alexander clearly pronounces words, adds emotional life to the characters and uses pauses and tonal changes to keep the listener interested. Her narration presents an easy way to enjoy this American classic.

I think in the end, however, I dislike the style of Hawthorne's writing.
At times, it seems that he couldn't decide which manner of description he liked best, so he left them all in.
He described that monkey at least three different ways.
The story itself, for me, was merely fine. The long, loquacious details about almost everything felt tiresome to read and I didn't find the characters to be very engaging.
It just wasn't the book for me, but I don't think it is bad.
