【實用書籍app】Great Expectations (by Charles Dickens)|最夯免費app-綠色工廠好玩App

GREAT EXPECTATIONS by Charles Dickens (unabridged) was produced by Blackstone Audio and comes with what is perhaps the best audiobook app available (see below for features list).One of the most revered works in English literature, Great Expectations traces the coming-of-age of a young orphan, Pip, from a boy of shallow aspirations into a man of maturity. From the chilling opening confrontation with an escaped convict in a graveyard to the grand but eerily disheveled estate of bitter old Miss Havisham, all is not what it seems in Dickens’s dark tale of false illusions and thwarted desire.Self-contained, this audiobook app is perfect for your commute, on a trip, or while relaxing. Based on a library-quality recording, this app was built especially for your iPhone and iPod Touch. No unreadable text, no endless scrolling. The audio is of higher-than-normal quality, making for a great listening experience that will not tire your ears or grate on your nerves.NOTICE: This app includes the same 5-star recording that is available through other retailers for higher prices. It is unabridged and professionally recorded at Blackstone Audio by Grammy Nominee Frederick Davidson. You are not buying yet another amateur or volunteer narration. No clicks, background noises, throat clearing, mispronunciations, tinny voices or monotones will be found here. “The Blackstone Audio version is marvelous. Frederick Davidson is a master of narration. The voice characterizations he takes on—funny when they need to be humorous, serious when that suits the tone—exactly catch the Dickens genius for moving up, down, and across the social scale and the emotional range.” —Audiobook Café•EXPERIENCE.
