Matthew Macfadyen reads "that most extraordinary part" of Pride and Prejudice, which includes subtitles. (from Carte Noir). (Just in case you get lost in your dreams ... "In vain I have struggled!" )
Happy New Year, gentle readers of Jane Austen Today!

Is there now an entire audio book of him reading? This is cool!
^That's what I want to know! I never listen to audio books, but I would listen to this one.
Good grief, I could listen to him read a phone book.
Lovely...it's like a forgotten Christmas gift tucked into the boughs of the tree, undetected until the tree is disassembled.
And, I agree, an audio book version would be so delicious. Thanks for sharing.
Like what the previous commenters said, I would listen to him read anything at all and want to know if he recorded the entire book.

I don´t know if there any book read by Matthew Macfadyen.
This reading is only this excerpt from Pride and Prejudice for Carte Noire.
An entire audio book would read by him be so delicious, indeed!
Wait, wait! There is a book entirely read by MM: "Coma", by Alex Garland
Raquel, Matthew has read Tony Parsons Stories We Could Tell, available only in the UK! http://www.audiobookfest.com/title.aspx?titleId=11347
He has a lovely voice. I do think he's holding back a bit though if you compare this version to the P&P movie. But it's very pleasant to listen to. Also adore the Georgette Heyer novels Richard Armitage recently read for the audio books.
Good heavens, what a voice! This guy might even read the phone book to me and I still would be smitten :-).A lovely present,indeed!
He has such a wonderful voice. I wasn't sure what Carte Noire is, so I Googled it and found the link to the downloadable file .
We always used to have "one last present" for our kids on Christmas evening...today I feel like I've received one as well :) Thanks!
Oh Vic, you know how to make a girl swoon. Matthew's voice is bliss. What a treat. Thanks you!
Vic,
thank you! I update write another post about the audiobooks!
