Literature Read me a story!

[Tardy Grade]

Though I'm an ardent advocate for the written word and all that is penned, I must say there are times when I wish to see a good voice attached to a book I enjoyed.

Likewise I'm sure some of you may have entertained the notion of a perfect world where So-and-so read the book such-and-such resulting in an amazing audio-book you wouldn't hesitate on adding to your library.

So feel free to mention your choice of narrator of any one title of/or entire series of books.

I'll start off by mentioning the 'The Kingkiller Chronicle' by Patrick Rothfuss to be read by ...

Jeremy Irons.

Below is a sample of his narrative prowess.

Spoiler: Of the book 'Lolita'[18+] but [B]not[/B] of an intimate scene.

Since the Kingkiller story itself has a narrative aspect by the main protagonist who's silver tongue and quick of wit I couldn't think of a better pick. If he was maybe a few decades younger then that'd be even more perfect.

I got a good read here for you. But it's a pretty short story, so I'll just tell it to you myself.

*ahem*...

Once there was an ugly barnacle. He was so ugly that everyone died.

The end.

Smh. I hate tragedies. Who'd be the narrator?

 

[AsrielGoatChild]

Why, one Mr. Patrick Star, of course. No one else could do such a powerful tale justice.

Personally I feel that Plankton could do the role justice.

Even better, though... Morgan. Freeman.
