Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 35 votes Genres: Classics, British Literature Publisher's Summary: Against a background of industrial unrest, misery, suspicion, jealousy, and the deaths of family and dear friends, the star-crossed love between mill owner John Thornton and the cultivated Margaret Hale is put to the test. Critic Reviews: "[Gaskell] was a keen observer of human behaviour and speech, among both industrial workers in Manchester and farming and country-town communities, and a careful researcher of the background and technicalities of her novels." (The Concise Oxford Companion to English Literature)

Title: 1984 Subtitle: New Classic Edition Author: George Orwell Narrator: Simon Prebble Format: Unabridged Length: 11 hrs and 26 mins Language: English Release date: 05-02-07 Publisher: Blackstone Audio, Inc. Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 16782 votes Genres: Classics, British Literature Publisher's Summary: George Orwell depicts a gray, totalitarian world dominated by Big Brother and its vast network of agents, including the Thought Police - a world in which news is manufactured according to the authorities' will and people live tepid lives by rote. Winston Smith, a hero with no heroic qualities, longs only for truth and decency. But living in a social system in which privacy does not exist and where those with unorthodox ideas are brainwashed or put to death, he knows there is no hope for him. The year 1984 has come and gone, yet George Orwell's nightmare vision of the world we were becoming in 1949 is still the great modern classic portrait of a negative Utopia. Critic Reviews: "It is probable that no other work of this generation has made us desire freedom more earnestly or loathe tyranny with such fullness." (New York Times, 1949)

Title: Northanger Abbey Author: Jane Austen Narrator: Joanna Lumley Format: Abridged Length: 2 hrs and 52 mins Language: English Release date: 04-25-07 Publisher: Hodder Headline Limited Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 8 votes Genres: Classics, British Literature Publisher's Summary: Northanger Abbey, a satire of Gothic melodrama, is one of Jane Austen's most popular works. When Catherine Morland is launched into the politics and pitfalls of the Bath social season, she behaves with the cheerful open-mindedness of one of Jane Austen's most eligible classic heroines. Critic Reviews: "The purpose of the novel is to ridicule the [then] popular tales of romance and terror...and to contrast these with the normal realities of life." (The Concise Oxford Companion to English Literature)

Title: Rebecca Author: Daphne du Maurier Narrator: Emilia Fox Format: Abridged Length: 2 hrs and 59 mins Language: English Release date: 04-03-07 Publisher: Hodder Headline Limited Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 3 votes Genres: Classics, British Literature Publisher's Summary: Rebecca is widely regarded as Daphne du Maurier's finest novel. It tells the story of Manderley, an exquisite house with gardens down to the sea; its owner Max de Winter; and his new young wife. And, of course, Rebecca. © and (P)1996 Hodder & Stoughton Audiobooks Critic Reviews: "If Daphne du Maurier had written only Rebecca, she would still be one of the great shapers of popular culture and the modern imagination. Few writers have created more magical and mysterious places than Jamaica Inn and Manderley, buildings invested with a rich character that gives them a memorable life of their own." (Richard Kelly, Professor of English, University of Tennessee)

Title: Emma Author: Jane Austen Narrator: Belinda Lang Format: Abridged Length: 2 hrs and 12 mins Language: English Release date: 02-09-07 Publisher: CSA Word Genres: Classics, British Literature Publisher's Summary: Seen through the eyes of Emma Woodhouse, Jane Austen paints a charming, often ironic, picture of courtship and love. The novel is set in Highbury, a sizeable village in Surrey, where social life is dominated by the intelligent and wealthy Emma, who has too little to occupy herself and turns to matchmaking on behalf of her friends and neighbours to relieve boredom. Her schemes meet with varying degrees of success, until she finally learns to concentrate on her own life and leave others to live theirs without her interference. (P)1994 CSA Telltapes Ltd. Critic Reviews: "As in all of Jane Austen's works, the simple theme of courtship belies the complexity of her vision of human nature and of our need for power. Technical brilliance? Yes. Moral brilliance? Most definitely." (Chris Kellett, 500 Great Books by Women: A Reader's Guide)

Title: Middlemarch Author: George Eliot Narrator: Harriet Walter Format: Abridged Length: 6 hrs and 14 mins Language: English Release date: 07-26-06 Publisher: Penguin Books Ltd Genres: Classics, British Literature Publisher's Summary: George Eliot's most ambitious novel is a masterly evocation of diverse lives and changing fortunes in a provincial community. Peopling its landscape are Dorothea Brooke, a young idealist whose search for intellectual fulfillment leads her into a disastrous marriage to the pedantic scholar Casaubon; the charming but tactless Dr. Lydgate, whose marriage to the spendthrift beauty Rosamund and pioneering medical methods threaten to undermine his career; and the religious hypocrite Bulstrode, hiding scandalous crimes from his past. As their stories interweave, George Eliot creates a richly nuanced and moving drama, hailed by Virginia Woolf as 'one of the few English novels written for adult people.' © & (P)1994 Penguin Books Ltd

Title: The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde Author: Robert Louis Stevenson Narrator: Ian Holm Format: Abridged Length: 2 hrs and 33 mins Language: English Release date: 05-19-06 Publisher: CSA Word Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 38 votes Genres: Classics, British Literature Publisher's Summary: The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde ranks alongside Frankenstein, The Picture of Dorian Gray and Dracula as one of the top horror stories to emerge from the late 19th Century. Film and stage adaptations have never been able to fully relate the agony and conflict that permeates the mind of Dr Jekyll, but the audio version read by Ian Holm adds an extra spine-chilling dimension to the original text by Robert Louis Stevenson.
