Curiously beautiful, an absolute gem !

Virginia can do little wrong, and whilst there is no other reader of Virginia Woolf to equal Juliet Stevenson, this very passionate interpretation
By Andrea Geordani is quite haunting, her rhythms musical, even though the accent is quite strong - its strange how the most english of writers fits Geordani ‘s voice so well. Oh surprise,surprise, it must the words ! A MUST LISTEN .
