The Narration is poor

The narrator was reading the text as a kid would read aloud. No emotion , no theater and even the story endings were so flat that it took me a while to understand that we moved to the next. Also, the pronunciation was off for quite a few words.

No song of Forest found 😤

Thought it would be related to the nature but it's only stories of the author.
Good for one who enjoys others stories.

Nice stories - light reading

Beautifully written stories, well presented. Nice thoughts of earlier times in India, of village life and folks, and various incidents which are eminently realistic. Excellent listening as they are engrossing stories. Best while on a walk.
