Hungry Hill Audiobook (Unabridged)

" Interesting but scattered multiple-generation saga. "

" This novel tells of the legacy of a family and their effect upon a country based on the feud of another family. It displays the joys and sorrows of the Brodicks. It is an awesome read. "

" This is a multigenerational saga that I just could not enjoy. The characters were all so depressed and troubled. The story was well constructed, but it just wasn't the least bit enjoyable. "

" ok, but not one of my favorites of hers "

" Some parts were interesting, but for the most part horribly depressing. I never want to read this book again! "

" Four generations of Irish mine owners are examined, none as strong in purpose as the original generation. This book is full of memorable characters and interesting historical information. "

" hmm, i didn't enjoy this one as much as 'house on the strand' for example. du maurier was very pleased with it apparently; perhaps because of the multiple main characters, following a family five generations, 'epic', etc. maybe it's my age; maybe i should of read it 20 years ago... "

" I rlove du Maurier's style of writing. I could not put this book down. "

" I was very dispaointed with Hungry Hill. The other Du Maurier books that I've read, I've adored but apart from a few chapters where I was interested, most of Hungry Hill bored me. "

" Hungry Hill is an Irish family saga written about a specific copper mine. It isn't as lengthy as most family sagas, and it is definitely not a flattering account of the Irish. The description and detail is classic du Maurier, and therefore makes it worth reading. "

" I love this author. This was a very interesting book. I was hoping there might be some type of mystery associated with the plot. There wasn't but it was still good. "

" Daphne, as always at her best. A great writer who is not acknowledged as she should be. "

" I rlove du Maurier's style of writing. I could not put this book down. "

" Wonderfully gripping and sensitive saga. The closest thing to a British 'East of Eden' I've ever read. "

" Not that great. I was disappointed. Certainly not Rebecca-quality. I gave up on reading it after the third generation, and looked up a summary online to see how it ended, because it was too tedious to finish. Life is too short to read bad books. Val "
