Editor's Review

AudioBook Atlas

Neus Sendra's narration is a joy to listen to, her Spanish accent lending a certain charm to Mary Beard's already engaging writing. She masterfully navigates Beard's conversational yet scholarly tone, making 'El Partenón' an audiobook you'll want to listen to in one sitting. Beard's storytelling is exceptional, weaving together historical facts, myths, and personal experiences to create a rich tapestry of the Parthenon's history. However, at times, the pacing feels a bit rushed, and some complex ideas could have benefited from a slower delivery. Overall, 'El Partenón' is a must-listen for history enthusiasts and casual listeners alike, offering a fresh perspective on a well-known monument.
