“I understood what Larkin was doing. Raised in England by adoptive parents, Alison Larkin was actually born in America. She herself is a comic writer and performer – and she approaches Austen as a satirist – she has genuine theatrical skill, so her Mrs. Elton, swooping and dipping in flights of arrogant self-serving nonsensical observation, and her Miss Bates, anxious and desperately self-conscious even as she talks without end, are both sustained comic creations. The voice reveals all.”
—David Denby, The New Yorker
PRIDE AND PREJUDICE
“Larkin’s spirited reading of Pride and Prejudice does full justice to Jane Austen’s masterpiece. Larkin’s voice is as “light and bright and sparkling” as one could wish. She inhabits Austen’s characters with a surety and insight that relays both the hilarity and the depth of this beloved work.” —Paula Marantz Cohen, author of Jane Austen in Boca
PERSUASION AND POEMS
200 years since Jane Austen completed her last novel, Alison Larkin, a witty and always original voice, brings Persuasion and a selection of lesser known poems by Jane Austen to a new audience.
EMMA
“There’s a vintage feel to Alison Larkin’s narration of this Austen favorite. The bell-like quality of her sweetly accented voice harkens back to another, quieter, time. However, her delivery of this much-loved matchmaking story offers a flexibility that is contemporary and easy to hear.” —Audiofile Review
