Her expression is always lively, her emotion appropriate and her pronunciation is perfect. On the contrary, 'Anna Karenina' contains long disquisitions on political and agrarian economy which are very demanding of a wonderful narrator and are well served by Davina Porter. What a nice surprise! The recording is as good as anything being recorded today, and despite being a really picky listener I have no complaints at all.
