I must say listening to the book as i read along is much more helpful then me trying to read it on my own. I was able to understand it much better.. Thank-you.

It is a bit different than the Folger edition.

[@angelicamcdonald9936]

That is how I read Shakespeare. I have to hear the different voices to help me analyze the text.

[@smalltownglobalproductions]

Plays were written to be seen not read to oneself.

[@zoeledwards6617]

Who is here because you rather listen to audiobooks than reading it yourself? This audiobook is really well done and voice acting is top notch. Props to everyone involved and uploder as well.

[@jennivee5621]

Thank you so much for doing this. I really appreciate it. Hamlet speech at the end of the second scene was very well read.

[@OuroborosChoked]

I have no idea why people are praising the person reading Hamlet's part. He sounds like a teenager bored with the material just droning through his lines.
Of this cast, Polonius is far better.

[@andrewreynolds7920]

to be fair, hamlet is a lot like a teenager bored with the material he's been given

[@ev6564]

@@andrewreynolds7920 And isn't Hamlet actually around the age of a teenager?

[@andrewreynolds7920]

@@ev6564 he's actually canonically around 30 in the play

[@ev6564]

@@andrewreynolds7920 Oh ok thanks for answering me. I heard in class that he might be around the late teen years in age but it was just speculation.

Is it just me or does Polonius sound like the narrator from Stanley Parable?

[@andrewsantamonica6025]

HAHAHA It's probably his older brother

[@umumumumumumumumumumumumum]

Why does Hamlet kind of speak like Critical, but with a higher pitch

This is perfect. Thank you 😊

Why are rosencrantz and guildenstern voiced by females? I'm all for equality, but its just distracting knowing they are supposed to be male -_-
