Would you listen to Nicholas Nickleby: Dickens on Dickens again? Why?
Definitely, I don't know why having a relative read the story should make it feel more intimate but it does. Obviously a professional at reading his great grandfathers books he brings a cultured, refined approach to a great Dickens novelWhat was one of the most memorable moments of Nicholas Nickleby: Dickens on Dickens?

Gerald Dickens does an excellent job of narrating this book, but has been badly let down by the publisher who didn't bother to edit it, so his small errors and repetitions are left in. Someone, somewhere hasn't done their job properly.
Shame the publisher didn't bother to edit this
