The only reason I give this 4 stars instead of 5 is the same exact reason I love Joan Hickson's voice: her voice and speech are so particular to her. Because she has such a quickly identifiable voice, I sometimes find it difficult to follow who is talking while she is reading. She sounds like Miss Marple the whole time and I haven't yet gotten used to "Miss Marple" reading other people's lines. But I've only listened to one of the stories so far: The Blue Geranium, so maybe I'll develop a better ear as I get farther along. I intend to listen to them all and I'm sure I'll enjoy them, but it isn't a book on tape that you can listen to while you're driving, or you'll end up in Toledo - it's good for listening while hand sewing or embroidering or something that doesn't require any thought (so you can focus wholly on that wonderful voice and the story.) I hope you enjoy! I am!
Wonderful!
