Audible Studios goes behind the scenes with actor and narrator Richard Armitage (The Hobbit, Hannibal). Between his work on the 2014 Audible Audiobook of the Year, 'Hamlet: A Novel', and his performance of 'Classic Love Poems', Armitage has quickly become a listener favorite. Now, in this defining performance of Charles Dickens' classic 'David Copperfield', he lends his unique voice and interpretation, inhabiting each character and bringing real energy to the life of one of Dickens' most famous characters. In this behind the scenes interview, Armitage tells us why instead of thinking of the audiobook only as a Victorian classic, we should think of it as a diary: the diary of someone who happens to be very philosophical, and very amusing.

I never thought I would love audible books so much. Richard has made me become a member also. Thanks so much for using him in so many works and may you continue in your successful relationship. It is truly a pleasure to listen to well narrated book. Richard definitely does not make Dickens feel stuffy at all, which to me is quite an accomplishment.

I love it so far!! I am a HUGE fan of Richard's, both of his acting and his audio work. I became a loyal Audible fan too because of Richard. I downloaded those projects he did with you and just fell in love with your system. I'm one of your monthly members now. Richard has brought you a lot of business. :) His audio work is just extraordinary! Thank you for having him narrate so often.

Mr. Armitage is such an intelligent man. Whether he is acting or narrating he approaches it from such a deep, thoughtful place.

i am a bit over 2/3rds of the way through this narration right now and listening to Richard Armitage read it while i follow along in my copy was a perfect choice for my first reading of David Copperfield 😃 This is probably my favorite audio book i've listened to to date and I think it is safe to say that David Copperfield ties with (and may even surpass slightly) Nicholas Nickleby for my favorite Charles Dickens 😀
