Queen Victoria
by Lytton Strachey · Free audiobook · 22 chapters
LibriVox recording of Queen Victoria by Lytton Strachey. Read by R. S. Steinberg. Lytton Strachey’s first great success, and his most famous achievement, was "Eminent Victorians" (1918), a collection of four short biographies of Victorian heroes. With a dry wit, he exposed the human failings of his subjects and what he saw as the hypocrisy at the centre of Victorian morality. This work was followed in the same style by "Queen Victoria" (1921).
