Leonora Flint

Leonora Flint reads English letters for Interactive Media. Clarissa Harlowe is the first long work: Richardson's novel of feeling, conduct, and a woman's will under siege. The voice has historic weather without costume, a social intelligence that understands a sentence before it finishes, and enough quiet in the line for a breath, a pause, a change of colour. Expressive, never theatrical. She belongs where passion has to keep its manners, and where a room still remembers who last spoke in it. Subtle, well tuned, a little more human than the usual English credit. The listener is not being brightened. The listener is being shown the furniture of a life.
