Summary
Widely regarded as Dickens's masterpiece, Bleak House centers on the generations-long lawsuit Jarndyce and Jarndyce, through which 'whole families have inherited legendary hatreds.' Focusing on Esther Summerson, a ward of John Jarndyce, the novel traces Esther's romantic coming-of-age and, in classic Dickensian style, the gradual revelation of long-buried secrets, all set against the foggy backdrop of the Court of Chancery. Mixing romance, mystery, comedy, and satire, Bleak House limits the suffering caused by the intricate inefficiency of the law.

Excellent narration by David Case. With a voice made for english literature. Notice how he assumes different peoples voices in the narration. All done by himself! What talent he had! He is informally known as have recorded more audiobooks than anyone else. They should have awarded him a grammy for lifetime achievement. Check out his work narrating Joseph Conrad "Heart of Darkness".
