This is a book reading.

Perhaps you've not heard of books. They're one of the great wonders of having an attention span of more than a minute, an appreciation of historical context, a sensitivity to the subtleties of language, and a little patience. If you give them a little time and a little thought, they will repay it a million times.

And if you're really good at it, you can even read them yourself.

There's a whole fantastic world out there you've never even seen.
Give it a try one day.

Someone who only has 2 days to read the book between work hours and commuting and who is trying to take advantage of every minute of the day. 'listening to this at my desk at work. Since I can't be reading right now, I can at least listen.

Why all the dislikes? People say that she reads quickly - no, the book itself is hard to understand. She's reading at a normal pace.

In the beginning, when quoting the Italian Opera lyrics, "m'ama" should be pronounced without doubling the second "m", because "m'ama non m'ama" with the apostrophes doesn't mean "mamma", mom, but "does he love me or does he not?" from the phrase "lui mi ama o non mi ama?"... Ciao!

I have to listen this for my class daily reading. I'm a slow reader.

If I listened to this while driving I think I would drive off a bridge...on purpose.
