I listened to a dramatised version of this one from Libivox that was not to bad. In typical Bronte style it's quite depressing for the most part and a little bit predictable with it's mistaken identities, misheard eavesdropping and misinterpretations of affections causing characters to completely fly of the handle and overreact to the simplest events.
Doesn't hold a card to her sister's work Jane Eyre as far as I'm concerned but I've read a work by each of the three Bronte's now so there's that.
Worth a listen but at 500 odd pages I wouldn't like to physically read it.
