Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. High-production radio dramatisation by an English company for Audible Studios. The credits at the end must be nearly 50 including a "runner" (!). The main weakness is that the words spoken are not by Dickens. The storyline is there, the characters, but not the language. It is a facsimile of Dickens. This is not inherently a bad thing, thinking of David Lean's two Dickens films, but this comes across as commercialized art. The original has more depth of language and meaning. I suppose this is good if you want the plot and don't want to think much. There are some legitimately scary moments reminding that this is a ghost story. ( ) no reviews | add a review
