And what's with the picture?

Roger Allam is brilliant. Had never heard of him before. Does a great Boston accent.

And who will be the reader tomorrow, for the last chapter?

Kim (kimmr) Allam is definitely one of the best readers they've used. He's a very experienced actor and it shows. The Epilogue's very short, so even if it's read by someone hopeless, it won't take long to get through!

Tracey (stewartry) This was extraordinary - finally, a long chapter paired with an excellent reader. I'd listen to the whole thing again if he read it.

Tracey (stewartry) And I hate that picture - and I'm not even coulrophobic.

Either am I and I don't like it either.

Roger Allam is a great narrator. He has narrated Joseph Conrad's Typhoon and I'm seriously considering getting it from Audible, just for the pleasure of hearing him read. Choosing to read a book because of the narrator is not something I usually do.

I'm looking forward to hearing this chapter given all the high praise. Kudos to you both for making it to chapter 134!
