Summary

"Mathilda" is the finished draft of a short novel by Mary Shelley. Its adult theme, concerning a father's incestuous love for his daughter and its consequences, meant that the manuscript was suppressed by Shelley's own father, and not published until 1959, more than a hundred years after her death.

Good performance, but listen to it on librivox

The narrator has a sweet and gentle voice, fitting for the young Mathilda, however, the recording has been taken from Librivox, where you can listen to it freely.
