The Moonstone is often said to be the godfather of the classic English detective story. TS Eliot, claiming that the genre was “invented by Collins and not by Poe”, declared it to be “the first, the longest and the best of modern English detective novels
The stone of the title is an enormous diamond plundered from an Indian shrine after the Siege of Seringapatam. Given to Miss Verinder on her eighteenth birthday, it mysteriously disappears that very night. Suspicion falls on three Indian jugglers who have been seen in the neighborhood. But all is not as it seems; dark secrets lurk behind respectable façades, and the trail of clues leads Sergeant Cluff in quite a different direction.
The Moonstone was originally serialized by Charles Dickens, a close friend of the author in his magazine All the Year Round between 4 January and 8 August 1868. It was published in three hardback volumes on 16 July 1868 by Tinsley Brothers of Catherine Street, in Covent Garden. A second, revised edition was issued in 1871.
Important note about this recording—it can confuse you. Not all chapters are numbered and there are “parts, “narratives” and 2 epilogues so numbers are repeated.. You will note that my numbering got a bit off from First to Second Period..
I have divided it into Four sections and each section into chapters, etc:
1 First Period The Loss of the Diamond (1848)
2 Second Period The Discovery of the Truth (1848–1849)
3 Narative Four thru Eight
4 Epilogues
Naxos divides it down even further so I have included the information pdf the accompanies the recording.

Thanks a lot!

Thanks so much jodindy!

Thankyou, this is a book I’ve always wanted to read (or have it read to me :-)
July 6th, 2019
Very good quality share. Thank you. However, track numbering is a total mess and do not tally with the chapters or the PDF file!
July 6th, 2019
Found out that the best way around this is to import EACH PART INDIVIDUALLY, name the part as ALBUM, remove all your number references and re-number in line with ALBUM or PART CHAPTERS. A beautiful book and performance. Thanks again.
July 6th, 2019
Thanks! This is the oddest coincidence. I watched The Invisible Woman today and Wilkie Collins is portrayed in the movie and I was thinking I needed to read/listen to the Moonstone. Wow.

marcodiluce - that is a Herculean effort! The numbering was partially mine and partially someone else’s. I knew the pdf would be needed. I hope the labels were accurate. If you want to upload your edit, please do and I’ll remove this one……J

Clarification.
The pdf is a reference guide to the progress of the story and a short bio of the readers, NAXOS divides the audio into equal tracks and labels accordingly. I did not follow NAXOS format but divided the text into major Periods, Chapters, Narratives, etc. according to the written text. I put the Prologue in the First Period.
…but was soppy and should have renumbered…..J
