Dame Julie Andrews is returning to the world of classic literature for her next major media project.

Andrews will read the celebrated text precisely as the author wrote it, allowing fans to enjoy every original detail, satirical observation, and romance-filled dialogue exchange. The project marks another high-profile chapter in Andrews’ legendary career.
