The best short stories but not the best reader.
The stories are excellent. The voice is annoying. It does the same thing at the end of most sentences with little modulation to show the meaning. I started waiting for the annoying inflection at the end rather than enjoy the wonderful prose.
I don't know if this is a professional actor reading, but they haven't done the required preparation. For example, they cannot pronounce 'presentiment' in one story where this word is of vital importance to the whole meaning of the story. In the same story, the word 'salon' is pronounced 'saloon' which has a totally different meaning and doesn't fit at all in that period of Paris.
I'd only recommend this production to someone already familiar with the stories for whom these misreadings wouldn't matter. But then, why would they choose such a poor reading to enjoy such wonderful stories.

Wonderful stories TERRIBLE narrator
after purchasing this as and other collections of my favorite authors I swore off anything read by Cathy Dobson. Her voice and ridiculous intonations ruins every story she reads. I am passionate about French and Russian literature and it is beyond disappointing to see so many of those stories read exclusively by Csthy Dobson. I noticed I am hardly the first to deem these recordings unlistenable. Why have they not been re-recorded by someone else?!!

Dobson as narrator ruins the best stories
The narration by Cathy Dobbs simply ruins what are otherwise spectacular stories. The wrong voice, narration, it’s just horrible, and sadly Dobbs narrates much of these beautiful older pieces. Listener beware, see if your ear can take it.
