Lu par Sonia

(4.8 stars; 3 reviews)

In this doctoral dissertation, author Lucy Allen Paton (1865-1951), an alumna of Radcliffe College, takes a scholarly look at the role of Morgan le Fay, not only in the Arthurian cycle, but also in many other medieval European text sources. This edition is an extended and rearranged republication of her original thesis "Morgain la Fée, a Study in the Fairy Mythology of the Middle Ages" from 1894. - Summary by Sonia

A special thanks is given to Brian Ó Broin, for helping me with the pronunciation of the many Irish references in this book. (8 hr 46 min)

Critiques

Absolutely wonderful


(5 stars)

I love recordings by Sonia, I seek them out, and I was thrilled to find a new one by her - and even better! An entire book, all read by her! She has a strong accent - but SUCH a beautiful one, I could listen to her read all day. She could literally read the phone book and it would sound exquisite. Far better that she reads such fabulous stories as these, instead. This is an absolutely lovely reading of a beautiful book, full of fascinating mythology Absolutely gorgeous. As ever, I look forward to more books read by Sonia ☺️💖
