LibriVox recording of The Regent by Arnold Bennett. Read by Andy Minter.
'The Regent' is, if not a sequel to 'The Card', then a 'Further Adventures of' the eponymous hero of that novel.
Denry Machin is now forty-three and begins to feel that he is getting old, that making money and a happy home life are not enough and that he has lost his touch as the entrepreneur and entertainer of the 'Five Towns'.
In fact, as he says to himself 'What I want is change - and a lot of it too!'. A chance meeting at the local theatre leads to his going to London and then... (Summary by A.J.M.)

Truth be told, I was not wild about this book after the first chapter. The same thing happened when I listened to The Card. But once you get a bit into the story, it takes off and let the laughs begin. Loved the story just as much as Bennett's other works.
Another well done solo reading by Andy Minter. Keep reading Andy - we love your work!
