Disappointing
If the book HMS Ulysses gets a 10, this one gets a two, although it might have been better to read than to listen to. My particular gripe would be with the female lead, Maria, who was written as a rather uninteresting character without much intelligence or sense, just a surfeit of good looks to be fawned over, and then narrated as variously simpering, whiny and rather pathetic. It was written in a different age, but then again, Jane Austen managed to have interesting, strong, insightful and intelligent female characters.
