Narrating Ivy Compton-Burnett's Manservant and Maidservant

from Naxos AudioBooks Podcast · host NaxosAudioBooks

Ivy Compton-Burnett’s originality and powers of observation are set off by Naxos AudioBooks’s new recording of her extraordinary 1947 novel Manservant and Maidservant. It is narrated by Emma Gregory; here she gives an interview with producer Neil Rosser. Ranging from the upstairs-downstairs ‘Downton Abbey’ aspect of the novel to the art of creating characters for contemporary video games, it is a fascinating discussion.
