From AudioFile

Hugely popular in its time, Collins's mystery-suspense novel is now largely forgotten. Its decline has been due partly to an extravagantly intricate plot (one improved by abridgment) and partly to an equally convoluted structure. The story is told through the accounts of several characters in succession. Because the accounts contain dialogue, listeners are treated to the unusual spectacle of hearing every character filtered through each of the others. Such complexity would have overwhelmed anything less than virtuoso performances. Fortunately, both Nigel Anthony and Susan Jameson rise to the occasion. Listeners will be excused in mistaking this for a full-cast dramatization, so expertly distinguished is the multitude of voices within voices. S.J.L.

3.0étoiles sur 5 I enjoyed the Woman in White, Nov. 8 2001
Par B. Carlson "brc4" (Las Vegas, NV) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
Walter Hartright first meets this mysterious woman while walking along a deserted road; she was a solitary, unusual woman who is dressed from head to foot in white garments. He talks with her and then she disappears.

In this way the Woman in White begins. It is a fascinating mystery novel full of twists and turns, mistaken identities, and surprise revelations.

I loved this book and the investigating that Walter Hartright does, after his first encounter with the woman in white, to uncover her identity.

This book was a bit dated in parts, but overall a strange, eerie mystery tale that is well worth reading. It deserves 3 1/2 stars.

5.0étoiles sur 5 The best 19th century novel I have yet read, Mars 26 2005
Par "thegrammarguy" (Navan, Ontario Canada) - Voir tous mes commentaires
This is an excellent novel. There is too much description, of course, but apart from that I can find no fault with it. The characters are well drawn, the plot in intricate and it unfolds as it should. Altogether a most satisfying read. I do have one question, however: The beginning is narrated by Sir Walter... and I do not see how he can be a Sir . Can anyone enlighten me? (dpolk@ashbury.on.ca)

5.0étoiles sur 5 An amazing read that will keep you guessing, Jui 15 2004
Par L. Butler "bibliophile" (Austin, TX United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
A friend of mine bought this book for me for Christmas and I was a little on the disappointed side. I thought from the blurb on the back and the time period the book is from that it would be long winded and dull. I was SO wrong! This book is literally non-stop excitement. Every page was chocked full of mystery and suspense and the characters were among the most interesting I've ever read about. Particularly the villain. He is without a doubt amongst the most evil and manipulative characters I've ever read about. This one is a must read!
