Oliver Twist (version 6)
Charles Dickens
Leído por Mil Nicholson
"Please sir, I want some more," the famous line spoken by Oliver Twist at age nine, becomes the tipping point of a huge change in Oliver's life. He is soon captured into the service of Fagin and his gang of pick-pocketing boys. But, Mr. Brownlow saves him from arrest, and for the first time in his young life Oliver finds comfort and caring. Unfortunately, he is recaptured into the seedy and disgusting world he had escaped, and meets with Bill Sykes, a dangerous criminal. There are numerous delightful or wicked characters that carry the story along, such as the Artful Dodger-- a boy of the streets under Fagin, Mr. Bumble the Beadle, looking for ways to get rid of Oliver, Nancy who makes a fateful betrayal, and the Maylies, whose affection Oliver craves. The author's descriptions of the back street life in London, bring us full force into the crushing poverty and the terrible way in which poor people were treated during that time. Charles Dickens wrote Oliver Twist as a serial in 1837, and it is considered one of the most popular in English literature. - Summary by Mil Nicholson (17 hr 25 min)

Reseñas
beautiful reading of this somber story!
jessibelle
Mil Nicholson is brilliant as usual! Her readings make Dickens so much more understandable and enjoyable. Oliver Twist is one of his more melancholy novels, but with powerful messages about the strength and influence of women and that good prevails over evil.
Mil the Magnificent!

A LibriVox Listener
Amazing reading! Mil brings Dickens to life!
Magnificent again
David Byrd
Ms.Nicholson brings this classic to life in a compelling way that cannot be denied. Her rendering of Dickens's tale of the poor Orphan Oliver, Fagan, Bill Sykes, Nancy and the artful Dodger is by far the best I have heard. She brings the story to life is a way that is unmatched and unforgettable. Just as she did with Great Expectations also on Librivox, she makes Oliver Twist alive with passion, pathos, and pity. Bravo!
An extraordinary story!
Jade Hei
What a wonderfully exciting story! The sound quality is very good and Mil Nicholson reads so clearly, it is easy to understand every word. Mil is also very good at giving different voices to the characters, it was a joy to hear this narration.

Mil Nicholson has a very clear and soothing voice as a narrator. She really brings life to the characters, which makes it easier to follow the storyline. Oliver Twist is a great story and Mil has captured its essence so well.
