Through a Glass Darkly

Sparkles with all of the passion, extravagance and scandal of a grand and glorious era…
As opulent and passionate as the 18th century it celebrates, Through a Glass Darkly will sweep you away to the splendors of a lost era. From aristocrats to scoundrels, its rich, vivid characters create their own immortality. Here is the story of a great family ruled by a dowager of extraordinary power; of a young woman seeking love in a world of English luxury and French intrigue; and of a man haunted by a secret that could turn all their dreams to ashes. . .©2003 Karleen Koen; (P)2006 Random House Audio, Inc.

Love this book but much better if you read it!

One of my all time favorite stories, but unfortunately this story lacks depth as so many point of views have been left out. The depth of the story is not there without them and it really cut the story short. Please release the FULL version of this story!

Not the full book.

This is an abridged version of the book. Still a good story, just wish I would have known. This version lacks the depth of the original

Disappointed

I had no idea the audio version was abridged. I loved the printed book when it came out years ago, including all the story lines of the secondary characters. This version left out all but the main characters, which is too bad. I would not have purchased it if I had picked up on the fact that it was an abridged version. I wish Audible would plainly label books when they are not the full version. Maybe they do, but I missed it.

One of my all time favorites.

I love this book so much. While the abridged isn’t as good as reading the whole thing I did love returning to this story.

I love this book even more after hearing it prefor

The narrator absolutely brought this book to life! I will listen to it over and over. Just beautifully done
