Though I always appreciate the opportunity to revisit classic authors (Cather is a favorite, and it's been far too long since I've tasted Harte or Twain), this is a mixed bag. The selections are likely chosen for licensing access and author recognition rather than for any thematic cohesion or variety, but I suppose that's OK.
audiobook note: The least "Christmas-y" story (Trollope's) is by far the strongest narrative performance. The others are adequate, but strangely uninspired. Too bad. Also, it is a disservice that the narrators are listed as a group rather than credited with their individual stories.
