Ophelia did an amazing job in all her sections but this one was perfection. i know online bot translators make mistakes but its better than nothing.Ĭhapter 14 – The Fête read by Ophelia Darcy. Update: happy and thankful for free online bot translators for the French passages :) just have to open text while listening and copy and paste. again, thank you so much Librivox, IA, volunteers and staff. Chip, who read the first chapter, has that classic American male voice over, radio and tv voice of the late 1950's to perhaps early 70's was also nice to hear, nostalgia i suppose. I suppose it is a soft spot in me but its worth listening just to hear the British female and most of the non british female voices. I always tell people English is my second and ONLY language :)or my first language is Americanese :). Villette is a great novel, better than Jane Eyre. My rule of thumb is that an author's most popular novel is not their best. For those of us for various reasons-my excuse being speech/hearing defect, and chronic neurosis-don't "parlay the French" it becomes difficult.
