About this listen

A holiday classic by Charles Dickens. Originally published in 1843, Dickens worried about the disparity between the wealthy and the impoverished, and it was his attempt to bring this disparity into the light of day, to appeal to the die-hard capitalists to take care of the downtrodden masses. Since this inequity continues, this story is still popular, and will probably continue to be so for the foreseeable future.

I have no idea how this rendition of one of my favourite stories and the best classic Christmas story was released.
The narration is terrible, initially I thought it was being read by a computer it is without doubt the worst I have ever listened to.

I stuck with this, but the American accent is pretty jarring and his voice doesn't really have much expression in it...

Love the story, but...
