Pride and Prejudice (Volume One) by Jane Austen - Unabridged & Navigable Audiobook
Ойын-сауық
Here is Volume One of Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen, first published in 1813. Possibly the most famous novel in the world, it’s packed with humour and wry observations about marriage, education, manners and money in Regency England. I persuaded my friend and excellent actor Sally Ann Burnett to read it for Magpie Audio. A quick trip to East Anglia to set up some additional equipment at her studio and me dragging my way through the proofing and editing, and, lo, we have Volume One (of 3).

I do hope fellow die-hard Conan Doyle subscribers will give it a listen and share the video with any Austen fans they know. Where there’s a Conan Doyle aficionado there’s often an Austen fan nearby (Opinion only - not fully fact checked!)

Please share!
Anyway, this novel needs little introduction and won’t get any from me. Here it is. Enjoy!
The portrait is of Mary Freer, by John Constable.
Read by Sally Ann Burnett.
(More Doyle soon)

My comnplients to the narrator she has a very pleasing even tone she sounds like a very experienced stage actresses. In fact she surely must be
I really enjoyed this reading; Ms. Burnett was spot on. I beg of you to hurry up and get the two remaining volumes edited etc. I was so disappointed when I realized that just volume 1 was currently available. Thanks for many happy hours!!

Oh my, I love Pride and Prejudice! I never thought I'd hear a narration by Magpie audio :D Would love to hear one by Agatha Christie in the future, needed some Hercule Poirot or Miss Marple stories haha

Greg knows how quickly AC can bring unwanted attention. Not many in the pd, unfortunately. Altho there may be some of her non detective works available, which are very good. Cheers fr Nashville ☺
Although I would've loved your narration as well, this is a refreshing and somewhat understandable change as it perhaps fits better with the main characters. I certainly can never resist an Austen. Thank you for the work!
You are right because I love Doyle and and Austen! But now that I have read your description it made me think of something incredible. If you enjoy these books as well as a bit of a mystery then perhaps one day my favorite book of all time might end up on this channel despite its length. Jane Eyre, please!!
EXCELLENT reading!! Bravo 👏 thank you, Magpie

That’s definitely true for me, Greg! Doyle and Austen fan here! This is definitely a fave. Never gets old. I find Mr.Bennet’s humor wonderful. Sally did a great job! :) Any chance you’ll read Dumas, Greg? 😍

Couldn't agree more! As for Dumas, I reckon the translations in the public domain are a bit clunky, but I could be wrong, Anna. I often am.
Is Greg at the pub again? 🤨
Definitely could have used this in college, but I’ll take it now and be happy!
