    I loved the reading - it brought it all to life. Thank you

    I loved the reading; but it stopped at 7 minutes and I could not start it again. Greg Wise is so very good. I would love to see him in a new film version of "Persuasion."

    Mr Willoughby and Persuasion - a match made in heaven!

    Amazing!! Now I feel like watching Sense and Sensibility!! Greg Wise has aged very nicely.....now I must buy the coffee...

    It was nice, however some of the shots are out of focus. As a cinematographer it hurts my eyes. Sounds good though.

  • MacleyPosted: 2009.09.15

    What an amazing and perfect match in having Persuasion read by Greg! So sad when it ended! But loved listening totally engulfed in one of the best passages of this great novel.
