  Jim Hawkins, the narrator of "Treasure Island", is a young man, yet most of the audiobooks available are performed by stately, mature men! This audiobook of the classic novel brings its characters - impulsive narrator Jim, two-faced John Silver, and each filthy pirate - to life in an energetic presentation full of charm and fun. Set sail with the Hispaniola with your course set for adventure! 
  Robert Louis Stevenson's "Treasure Island" was the first to sail many seas: Long John Silver was the first one-legged buccaneer stumping about on a wooden leg, Captain Flint was the first pirate's parrot, and the map of Skeleton Island was the first to be marked with an X for "Dig Here" - but its swashbuckling adventure remains as fresh and exciting today as it did when it was first published; that's one of the rewards of being first.

  A PAINFUL CASE: Mr James Duffy lived in Chapelizod because he wished to live as far as possible from the city of which he was a citizen and because he found all the other suburbs of Dublin mean, modern and pretentious. He lived in an old sombre house and from his windows he could look into the disused distillery or upwards along the shallow river on which Dublin is built.
