Chapter 10 - In the Storm - In which our narrator proceeds on his journey back to his house in Maybury Hill and encounters a storm and other more disturbing developments.


David Clarke, an acclaimed narrator known for his work with Librivox, lends his voice to the timeless pages of classic literature in Opera Vox Audiobooks. The title itself is a clue to the experience: 'Opera' for the classic works, 'Vox' for the voice that carries them. This podcast is a dedicated space for serialized readings, where novels unfold chapter by chapter in a clear, engaging performance. Each episode is a continuation of a journey, whether through the intricate social webs of a nineteenth-century novel or the adventurous landscapes of a foundational work of fiction. Subscribing means following a book to its conclusion, without missing an installment. Clarke’s narration aims to be more than a recitation; it’s an interpretation that honors the author’s original text while making it accessible for modern ears. The focus remains firmly on the works themselves, delivered in a straightforward, audio-book style format. Listener input on future selections is welcomed, adding a collaborative dimension to the curated library. For anyone seeking a calm, consistent voice to guide them through literature’s great stories, this podcast offers a regular and reliable retreat into the world of words.
