A triumph of spoken art.
- As read by Peter Capaldi, this classic of classics is a refreshing break from the reality of our everyday lives, what with all the negativity that seems to just get worse. In Watership Down, we are given many uplifting adult lessons by this group of bunnies trying to find peace and some solace from their doomed habitat and venture into the unknown. With so many allegorical messages, along with the charm that Mr. Adams fuses into an epic that entertains both children and adults, one can’t help but wish there were more listening opportunities like this. If you’re familiar with the story, treat yourself to a 3-D version of it as Mr. Capaldi keeps a smile on your face for the many hours of the adventure. Highly recommended.
