George Silverman's Explanation (Audiobook): Read by Dominic Gerrard
The brilliant Dominic Gerrard has published an audiobook of Dickens's under-appreciated short story 'George Silverman's Explanation', and you can listen to it here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=QXwT.... It's probably my favourite underrated Dickens, and it's well worth a listen.
