The Man of Property

Just finished listening to the David Case narration of Sir John Galsworthy's The Man of Property. (First in The Forsyte Saga. Ebook versions are available here in the Patricia Clark Memorial Library.)

A classic work of capitalism and property, with a bit of love story thrown in for good measure. Soames is the ultimate Man of Property, and a truly loathsome character. The Audible edition, from Blackstone Audio and read by David Case, is a superb example of a good audio book being even better than the original. David Case's narration brings the characters and the drama alive. I have tried to read this in eBook format several times, always bogging down at some point. But listening to Mr. Case's narration of the book on a long trip was a complete revelation and made the tedium of long stretches of driving positively enjoyable. Highly Recommended.
