1) Audio CD Book Brideshead Revisited: Film Tie-in Version (Csa Word Classic) by CSA WORD. Anyone considering a purchase of this product should know that it is very heavily abridged. It´s difficult to give a realistic assessment of how much has been lost, but to me it sounds as though about half of Waugh´s writing has been cut out. Most of the dialogue is there, but the narratives have been omitted. Whole characters, such as Hooper and Charles Ryder´s father, have been truncated, leaving the book really an empty shell.
I was really disappointed by this product: Nowhere on the CD itself does it say "Abridged," nor is it obvious in the product description. I guess I just have to assume that if it does not say "Complete and Unabridged," it´s been mutilated.¤ 2) Audio CD Book Brideshead Revisited: Film Tie-in Version (Csa Word Classic) by CSA WORD. Charles Ryder meets Sebastian, a member of the aristocratic Flyte family, at Oxford. He then begins to spend time at the family home, Brideshead, where he is welcomed into the fold and enjoys a decadent high-society lifestyle. Things start to unravel, however, when Charles notices the cracks in the veneer: his perception of the naivety of the family´s devotion to the Catholic faith, and his friend´s increasing drink habit. Examining the complexity of relationships and the strength of belief, "Brideshead Revisited" is an intense semi-autobiographical listen as well as a riveting one.¤ Page Updated: Robert N.
