Book description
Ardita is a young and rich flapper girl who is spending time at her uncle's yacht. She is not interested in the things her family wants to do; she would rather spend her time sunbathing and reading Anatol France. Besides that, she ends up having an argument with her uncle about her love life. The uncle decides to leave Ardita on the yacht while he is ashore.Soon there comes a change in the situation when a boat filled with seven men approaches the yacht – the men are pirates, and Ardita is more than excited about it!'The Offshore pirate' is F. Scott Fitzgerald's intriguing short story published in 1920.F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940) is one of the greatest American novelists of the 20th century and author of the classics ‘Tender is the Night’ and ‘The Great Gatsby’. His writing helped illustrate the 1920s Jazz Age that he and wife Zelda Fitzgerald were in the centre of.

ListenBook's basic audio filters enhance my listening experience and make it uniquely mine. This app is a game-changer for anyone who's always on the go – it's like carrying a library in my pocket. ListenBook has become my go-to app for exploring a diverse range of audiobooks. It offers a wide array of features that cater to different preferences and needs. This was a workmanlike audiobook that did the job without flair. The narration was clear and the pacing appropriate, though the delivery lacked some emotional depth. The production quality was acceptable with no major technical issues. I don't have strong feelings about this one either way. The narration was competent but forgettable. The story itself was more engaging than the performance.
