Destroyed one of Bulgakov’s Great Novels

The introduction says it all - in which the narrator described how they have butchered the text so it can be read by him. There is constant music in background and the reading and pronunciation is very poor indeed. Whether in American or English accent a good reader will draw you in and captivate the listener but the drawl, and stop start reading seems very unprofessional. In short is unlistenable. They have really destroyed this book.
