Summary

Daniel Deronda is a clever and generous young man who has yet to find his true direction in life, much to the dismay of Sir Hugo, who has helped raise him. While in Germany, Daniel meets the attractive and headstrong Gwendolen, who's lost a fortune at the roulette table that her family cannot afford to lose, before returning to England. Back in London, Daniel rescues a singer Mirah from drowning herself, then begins to find purpose in helping her search for her family. This entertaining satire of Victorian society follows the stories of Daniel, Gwendolen, and Mirah.

Disappointing performance

Why was this reader chosen rather than a woman? He mispronounces English words such as 'hyperbole' and chooses an inappropriate Jewish accent which turns into mockery.
Chuppa does not begin with 'ch' as in chips.
A disappointing rendering of a very great novel.

The first book abandoned

I cannot finish this book 8n audio format as the narration us so poor. The emphasis in sentences is all wrong and speech flows into narrative without a oause or change if voice.
I tried to persevere but have given up.
