About this listen

 Next to The Bible, The Pilgrim's Progress has probably been more widely read than any other book in the English language, and rightfully so. It is considered by most critics as the greatest allegory in any language. And to think that it was written by a jailed tinker who received very little formal education.

This is the enthralling account of a Christian's epic journey. With a burden on his back, Christian reads a book that tells him that the city in which he and his family dwell will be set ablaze. Christian flees from the City of Destruction and journeys through the Slough of Despond, the Interpreter's House, the House Beautiful, the Valley of Humiliation, the Valley of the Shadow of Death, Vanity Fair, Doubting Castle, and the Delectable Mountains, and finally reaches the Celestial City.

Well what is there to say about this timeless classic that hasn't already been said?

It is an excellent story especially when one considers how the story was written, that is by a man imprisoned for his faith. Imprisoned because his expression of his Christian faith was opposed by the established church of his day.

Four hundred years forwards and in many countries people are still suffering for following Jesus as the Holy Spirit leads.

The Pilgrim's Progress is as relevant today as when first written.

excellent book, moving and inspiring, much easier to follow by listening. Though I need to get a paper copy as well. If you are a Christian I recommend this.

I initially bought the paperback of this book, but never got round to reading it, and I'm glad in the end I listened to it, as the archaic language would probably have made me put it down. I enjoyed the tale, and although it is not perhaps deep in literary technique, character development, etc that we generally expect from books, I would recommend it to any Christian who will understand the allegory and analogy from the Bible.

Well read

John Bunyan's stories are are very clear sighted of the Christian walk and life. Nothing hasn't changed since his days. The enemy is in the bitter ground and his heart the same, although he takes different approaches and shapes today, but also God's grace and power is the same.

So let's keep on the good walk and fight the good fight and and one day we shall hear from those blessed Lips "Well done my faithful servant" !! Glory to Jesus
