Acerca de esta escucha
Para empezar a contar la historia de mi vida en el mismo momento del comienzo de la misma, recuerdo que nací, tal y como he sido informado, un viernes a las doce en punto por la noche David Copperfield.
En Sonolibro hemos adaptado la obra original de Dickens, abreviando sus 650 páginas hasta hacerla plenamente asequible en un Audiolibro en tres capítulos con un total de cinco horas de grabación totalmente dramatizada. David Copperfield, se dice que es la obra más autobiográfica de Dickens y los personajes que interactúan en la misma están completamente vivos: El Sr. Murdstone, el padrastro sin escrúpulos; El Sr. Micawber, optimista empedernido; Pegotty, con su amor maternal hacia David; La Sta Betsie, que consigue superar su matrimonio frustrado; Dora Spendlow, chica tontita y mona; Uriah Heep, del que preferimos no hablar, porque creemos que lo disfrutaréis más descubriéndolo.
Please note: this audiobook is in Spanish.

Adam Bede (1859), George Eliot's first full-length novel, marked the emergence of an artist to rank with Scott and Dickens. Set in the English Midlands of farmers and village craftsmen at the turn of the 18th century, the book relates a story of seduction issuing in "the inward suffering which is the worst form of Nemesis". But it is also a rich and pioneering record - drawing on intimate knowledge and affectionate memory - of a rural world that we have lost.

Historia
Following Jane from her childhood as an orphan in Northern England through her experience as a governess at Thornfield Hall, Charlotte Brontë's Gothic classic is an early exploration of women's independence in the mid-19th century and the pervasive societal challenges women had to endure. At Thornfield, Jane meets the complex and mysterious Mr. Rochester, with whom she shares a complicated relationship that ultimately forces her to reconcile the conflicting passions of romantic love and religious piety.

Historia
Of Human Bondage is one of the greatest novels of modern times, and it is certainly Maugham's greatest achievement. It was published in 1914, when Maugham was at the height of his creative powers. The story concerns Philip Carey, afflicted at birth with a club foot, and his passionate search for truth in a cruel world. We follow his growth to manhood, his educational progress, his first loves, and the wrenching tragedies and disappointments that life has in store for him. In some of the finest prose of the 20th century, Maugham has presented us with the timeless story of one man's search for the meaning of life.

Historia
Richard Dawkins, author of The God Delusion and a life-long committed Darwinist, abridges and reads this special audio version of Charles Darwin's famous book. A literally world-changing book, Darwin put forward the anti-religious and scientific idea that humans in fact evolved over millions of generations from animals, starting with fish, all the way up through the ranks to apes, then to our current form.
