Saving the Appearances - excellent audiobook version read by Aaron Parker

A complete audiobook version of Owen Barfield's most important book Saving the Appearances has been recorded on YouTube by Aaron Parker.  

This is an excellent resource, because Saving the Appearances, although extremely well written, has often proved to be difficult for people to understand. 

At least, many people, including myself, seem to have misunderstood the book and failed to recognize its exceptionally deep and transformative implications on a first reading. 

I think this is likely to be helped by Aaron Parker's impressive narration, which is highly engaged with the text; and articulated with an emphasis and modulation that makes it both easier to maintain concentration, and to grasp the argument. 

Saving the Appearances has been a life-changing book for many people. If you have never yet tried it, or tried and didn't "get" it; then here is a new kind of opportunity for you.
