Nibbles The Cat Reads Pride and Prejudice

7 December, 2007 (12:18) | Video

In this original video production by Irregular Books, Nibbles the Cat introduces himself and begins reading Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice. It isn’t the BBC, to be sure, but a cat brings a different kind of understanding to the work of Jane Austen than a human director, and that must be of some interest to fans of Jane Austen.

Post script: Nibbles the Cat likes people to think that he’s got an English accent, when in fact, he’s from Nebraska. Please forgive him this conceit. He is, after all, a cat.
