@@jackh4843 Wisely done as the British reader enhances the story! I consider "The Tale of Two Cities", Dickens finest work with "Bleak House" a close second.
He was brilliant. His contempt for hypocrisy and deception is beautifully expressed throughout every line of his works. Most of it goes right over people’s heads, they think it’s boring. It’s absolutely riveting and hilarious.
@@ryanpatrickwhite97 Yes. Charles Dickens is genius with the English language. One can get by with eight or sixteen crayons in a box. But,with Dickens, you get EVERY COLOR!!!
His World was limited. He did not come from wealth. We forget, as United States citizens, having the luxury to learn to read and write was a privilege to the few in that era.
Thankyou so much, this is a difficult read that I struggled through many years ago, your narration was lively and exciting, Of course, the story is one of the best ever written.

The joys of a book read by one excellent Libravox narrator!!! I'm having so much fun. I do wish, I knew a Dickens scholar personally though, bec. I have so many questions about Sydney Carton. So. many. questions. 🤔😵
It is one of the most widely read novels in the English language. The characters are extremely believable and so is the setting. Dickens is famous two centuries later because of this book and A Christmas Carol.

😪I'm rereading this after many years. The depth and understanding of Charles Dickens is beyond belief. How awful for this kind, good man to have to see all of these awful things and have no way to change things. I feel this man's pain.
I loved the novel, Dickens' best & the movie does it justice. The appalling rage of the blood thirsty crowd, the indifference of the "justices", the cruelty of Madame LeFarge, the cowardice of her husband. The worst in human nature so much so that Napoleon is a relief.
Thank you so much for this excellent reading. You bring all of Dickens’s skill to life. I hope you won’t be offended if I point out that your pronunciation of “Saint Antoine” is incorrect: the first “t” should be sounded, because of the vowel which follows it, which makes it easier to say. I’m sure this won’t bother the vast majority of your listeners, but as a French speaker I found it irritating, especially as the expression is repeated so often. An excellent interpretation in spite of this.
I have this book with me..but never gone beyond two pages at one go ... always wanted to read Dickens... but never got opportunity as where I studied they never taught this kind of literature in school's ..hope this would help...
I went back and reread so many books that I had to read for classes over the years (this one included). They're all more enjoyable when the pressure is off!
When you go back and read again decades later, science has shown you can actually bring your mind and body back to experimence again the feeling of where you first were on the first time reading.
"It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way-in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only."
I have heard the opening sentence of comparisons and never knew it came from 'Tale of Two Cities'. "It was the best of times it was the worst of times." The Novel, a comparison of situation during the turmoil in France and England. Ruth Davis-Panchelli
A Tale of Two Cities” is such a gripping and thought-provoking novel. The way Dickens explores themes of sacrifice, identity, and social justice, particularly through the characters of Charles Darnay and Sydney Carton, is powerful. Carton’s transformation is especially poignant, showcasing the redemptive power of love and selflessness. The backdrop of the French Revolution adds a thrilling historical layer, making it both a personal and political story. Do you have a favorite character or moment from the book?

Well, I'm in chapter 3 of the first book, and I understand my younger self thinking that this was a zombie/vampire book and putting it away. I think there was a dead woman involved, but perhaps that's all coming up. Definitely confused about what's going on, but I'll keep plugging away, as it's much easier to keep going with an audio book. Edit to add: Aha! An actual story begins in chapter 4!
@@sofiagold4255 Well, I never did finish it, but on the positive side, I did learn a lot about the French Revolution ! I happened to be reading "the count of Monte Cristo" at the same time, and my googling had a definite french history theme there for a while! 😂 This book gets much more coherent as it progresses, but I think the main characters didn't get the development they needed to be truly interesting to me. Dickens kept going back to the social injustice and ideas around how and why the revolution happened, and circling around that. Which is a worthy subject, undoubtedly. It's not a story that'll grip me very hard while I'm gardening, though. I might come back to it sometime. After this failed attempt, I found that listening to "the Hollytree Inn" was a great pleasure! It's a group effort from several authors of the day. They each wrote a chapter, and Dickens wrote the beginning and end. I'd recommend it!
Who is here from finding out this audiobook is being listened to by an actor in the show FEAR THE WALKING DEAD SEASON 5 EPISODE 10 MORGAN FROM THE WALKING DEAD IS IN THIS SEASON BOTH THE WALKING DEAD AND FEAR THE WALKING DEAD COLLIDE TOGETHER, BUT VERY DIFFERENT LOTS OF ACTION, AND LOYALTY.

Great, the reader is amazing in his reading
Thanks
😪I'm rereading this after many years. The depth and understanding of Charles Dickens is beyond belief. How awful for this kind, good man to have to see all of these awful things and have no way to change things. I feel this man's pain.
Hands DOWN, my favorite classic. ❤
thanks for this beautiful reading!
5:56:10: “I wish you to know that you have been the last dream of my soul.”
I loved the novel, Dickens' best & the movie does it justice. The appalling rage of the blood thirsty crowd, the indifference of the "justices", the cruelty of Madame LeFarge, the cowardice of her husband. The worst in human nature so much so that Napoleon is a relief.
Love this Reading! Thanks!
Great reading, thanks a lot
So at 2:11:40 it’s says “ill-looking” in the book and he says “inn-looking”
What a relief from the first reading I found!
This is so nice, just to listen to. Thank you
Paul Adams rocks!
Fantastic work and I love Paul’s expressive reading 😃👍❤️🇦🇺
Amazing and awful that the opening is so appropriate for today.
Thank you so much for this excellent reading. You bring all of Dickens’s skill to life. I hope you won’t be offended if
I point out that your pronunciation of “Saint Antoine” is incorrect: the first “t” should be sounded, because of the vowel which follows it, which makes it easier to say. I’m sure this won’t bother the vast majority of your listeners, but as a French speaker I found it irritating, especially as the expression is repeated so often. An excellent interpretation in spite of this.
I read this book allot. Dickens was the master.
I have this book with me..but never gone beyond two pages at one go ... always wanted to read Dickens... but never got opportunity as where I studied they never taught this kind of literature in school's ..hope this would help...
I'M CRYING REAL TEARS
I KNOW FEW BOOKS MAKE ME FEEL LIKE THIS
thank you for the reading it was good to listen to. great story
1:56:37 book 2 starts
I like this audio book so much I've known of it just today yet it is so interesting
Great voice thank you❤
I read this book for fun in fifth grade and it was (and still is!) one of my favorite books
Liar
Excellent reading
wonderful narrator
Good job narrator!
I’d enjoy this more if it wasn’t for a class....
I went back and reread so many books that I had to read for classes over the years (this one included). They're all more enjoyable when the pressure is off!
When you go back and read again decades later, science has shown you can actually bring your mind and body back to experimence again the feeling of where you first were on the first time reading.
When Dickens describes the sensations I feel like I'm there.
Thank you
The best reading.
Superb narration. TQ. 👍👍👍👍👍
"It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way-in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only."
I have heard the opening sentence of comparisons and never knew it came from 'Tale of Two Cities'. "It was the best of times it was the worst of times." The Novel, a comparison of situation during the turmoil in France and England. Ruth Davis-Panchelli
Great English with a reading skill.
Thanks bro. You helped me a lot
A Tale of Two Cities” is such a gripping and thought-provoking novel. The way Dickens explores themes of sacrifice, identity, and social justice, particularly through the characters of Charles Darnay and Sydney Carton, is powerful. Carton’s transformation is especially poignant, showcasing the redemptive power of love and selflessness. The backdrop of the French Revolution adds a thrilling historical layer, making it both a personal and political story. Do you have a favorite character or moment from the book?
2020 living in it
Thanks for the video.
I wish you showed some pictures and explained the difficult words.
Look em up lazy!

Someone give this man an award for 4:19:53. It caught me so off guard.
interesting how the first portion resembles current events......
Facebook deleted a massive amount of great books it's a shame
Facebook is a invasion of too much info. ECT I took a shit today. I did this today. its the narcissism thophy. Look WHat I can do. th-cam.com/video/NY1l25OiLBM/w-d-xo.html
Facebook is metaphorically speaking burning history
Well, I'm in chapter 3 of the first book, and I understand my younger self thinking that this was a zombie/vampire book and putting it away. I think there was a dead woman involved, but perhaps that's all coming up. Definitely confused about what's going on, but I'll keep plugging away, as it's much easier to keep going with an audio book.
Edit to add: Aha! An actual story begins in chapter 4!
I don't think this is a good book. It's supposed to be a suspense type thing. Dickens other novels are much much better than this.
@@sofiagold4255 Well, I never did finish it, but on the positive side, I did learn a lot about the French Revolution ! I happened to be reading "the count of Monte Cristo" at the same time, and my googling had a definite french history theme there for a while! 😂
This book gets much more coherent as it progresses, but I think the main characters didn't get the development they needed to be truly interesting to me. Dickens kept going back to the social injustice and ideas around how and why the revolution happened, and circling around that. Which is a worthy subject, undoubtedly. It's not a story that'll grip me very hard while I'm gardening, though.
I might come back to it sometime.
After this failed attempt, I found that listening to "the Hollytree Inn" was a great pleasure! It's a group effort from several authors of the day. They each wrote a chapter, and Dickens wrote the beginning and end. I'd recommend it!
great reading
Who is here from finding out this audiobook is being listened to by an actor in the show FEAR THE WALKING DEAD SEASON 5 EPISODE 10 MORGAN FROM THE WALKING DEAD IS IN THIS SEASON BOTH THE WALKING DEAD AND FEAR THE WALKING DEAD COLLIDE TOGETHER, BUT VERY DIFFERENT LOTS OF ACTION, AND LOYALTY.
