About this audiobook
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Ralph Waldo Emerson was the leading proponent of the Transcendentalist movement of the mid-nineteenth century. He was ordained as a Unitarian minister at Harvard Divinity School but served for only three years before developing his own spiritual philosophy based on individualism and intuition. His essay Nature is arguably his best-known work and was both groundbreaking and highly controversial when it was first published. Emerson also wrote poetry and lectured widely across the US.

- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5I just can't I can't I can't listen to this narrator and take her seriously. I feel the erotic genre is a better category for her. This is not a judgment by no means and nothing against a " soft and soothing" voice but she is overtly sexual w the dramatic and breathy tone she has allowed to suffocate the literary text which in itself is beautiful and atmospheric. Don't even bother. What a loss
