    Wonderful narration. And wonderful choice -- Charles Dickens!
    Sheridan Le Fanu wrote some spooky stuff. The best -- _Uncle Silas_ would be too long for a book narration, but it sure gave me the creeps!

    I am about a year late, but that was enjoyably read, reminded me a little of Jude Law. I normally listen to the excellent 'Bite Size Classics' channel.
    Hope your job went well in the end.

    A grim and horrific tale. Today, it may serve as a point of comparison between the victorian era and our own. For me, what puts the story over the top, is the doctor's extraordinary generosity.
