    Passion. A mother's passion. A young's man's passion. A beautiful girl's passion. A believable tale because as humans we are all people of passion and not above letting it get the better of us. Thank you for your excellent rendition of a great story.

      Yes, there were some odd emphases, as if of a limited range. But it has the name, Simon Stanhope. I guess they could give it a name to try to give it some personality. Besides, listened to several audiobooks on this channel, the voice is always exactly the same, buy with different names. And sometimes it makes odd mistakes like mispronouncing "bow."

      Suspicious!! I know Simon Stanhope’s channel. His reading is distinctive, some might say mannered, but I’ve grown to like it.
      I didn’t spot his name in the description.

      @@quickchris10 I don't see Simon Stanhope's name anywhere, and it sounds very much like AI, a computer voice to me. I listen to Simon regularly and this is not his voice.

    💢 I talk about the Story. Do Not Read Before listening!!! Sorry, Simon, your reading was very good, but i don’t agree with the interpretation.
    what a horrible story. i never thought to read anything like this from Maughm. of course, it wasn’t read with the pathos it should have been read with. one’s sympathy should be with her. she’d sacrificed her whole life for her son. yes, she was psychologically twisted, but the girl was very mean, as was the son. this is truly a tragedy 🎭
