WE HAVE ALWAYS LIVED IN THE CASTLE

by | Read by Bernadette Dunne

Mystery & Suspense • 5.5 hrs. • Unabridged • © 1962

This story is a happy combination: a gripping listen matched to a narrator who delivers the story perfectly. While it’s not action packed, thrilling, tense, or any of those other adjectives usually applied to a mystery, one just cannot switch it off. Told with an air of deep despair, it remains a tale that will not quit. There’s no blood or gore, just a melancholy lady, whose voice is laden with fathomless unhappiness. There’s something about the Blackwood family, hated by the people in the village . . . The whole sorry history is laid out by the youngest of the Blackwoods, a girl of 18. What has happened? What could possibly cause such terrible sadness and pain? It’s a compelling journey to the depths of the human soul, with an ethereal narration that almost defies description. Just listen.
