The Maid of Fairbourne Hall Free Audiobook Download by Julie Klassen


The Maid of Fairbourne Hall is an amazing audiobook. The reader is the narrator and she does an excellent job making you feel like you are right there with Ellie. She is able to change her voice to an older woman, a younger girl, or a male voice fairly well which really made me feel for this character. I loved her voice as much as I loved the book!

This audiobook download features an adaptation of the memoir by Julie Klassen and is narrated by Elizabeth Jasicki. It is set in the late 1800s and tells the tale of how a young Irishwoman seeks her fortune at Fairbourne Hall, a mansion near Liverpool, England. Ms. Klassen's story is written with a mix of humor and despair.

Alice and her brother James live with their widowed aunt, uncle, and cousin Maggie when their mother dies. They are sent to live with Aunt Maggie in Fairbourne Hall, where they meet the housekeeper/gardener Mrs. Gresham and the maid of Fairbourne Hall, Eileen. Alice and James fall in love with Fairbourne Hall, but soon discover that all is not as it seems on the estate.

"Elizabeth Jasicki is a professional narrator who excels at bringing Julie Klassen's beautifully written tales to life." - Audible.com

Julie Klassen has written a beautiful, heart warming novel about the love between a young girl and her maid. The Maid of Fairbourne Hall was one of my favorite books of last year. The audiobook is approximately 9 hours long, but it's worth listening to in its entirety. I gave it five stars because the narrator did an amazing job with this book and her voice made me feel like I was sitting on the porch at a cottage reading this classic every summer evening.

This is one of the best books I have ever listened to. It is so well written, with such strong characters and originality. I found myself pulled into the story almost immediately, even though this book is based on true events that happened hundreds of years ago. The tone was perfect, and I couldn't wait to see what would happen next.
