horrible narrator. couldn't listen to it....

I couldn't listen to this. not sure if the narrator was trying to make a russian accent buy it was dreadful. So upset about this I ll just have to buy the real book. as the stories are amazing but I don't know who on earth could listen to this woman talk more than a 1 min.
