The History of Pendennis

About this film

LibriVox recording of The History of Pendennis by William Makepeace Thackeray. Read in English by Kristin Lewis; Eli27; Winston Coltart; MargaretD; Michelle Tan; jenno; Mike Moffatt; Jim Locke; Joseph Tabler In Pendennis, William Makepeace Thackeray skillfully shows the coming of age of Arthur Pendennis, a young gentleman trying to make his way in the world. Pen's difficulties in finding his place in the difficult maze of social obstacles are created to some extent by his being raised in the country and being from an ancient though impoverished family. We follow his course from the village in which he was raised via Oxbridge to London, meeting the most memorable characters, falling in and out of love, navigating the difficulties of society, and hopefully finally arriving at a happy end. - Summary by Carolin For further information, including links to online text, reader information, RSS feeds, CD cover or other formats (if available), please go to the LibriVox catalog page for this recording.
