overacted voices
Revisado: 09-26-24
Truly poor over dramatization, fake breaks, so so so sad to witness the killing of a good story. And the muzak, ohh the muzak. And the matches.

When a murdered woman is found in the city of Beszel, somewhere at the edge of Europe, it looks to be a routine case for Inspector Tyador Borl ú of the Extreme Crime Squad. But as he investigates, the evidence points to conspiracies far stranger and more deadly than anything he could have imagined.

Interesting premise
Revisado: 07-17-24
Interesting premise but overly wrought structure lacks logic and coherence while flow relies too heavily on reader's/listener's inattention

What makes for a happy life, a fulfilling life? A good life? In their “captivating” (The Wall Street Journal) book, the directors of the Harvard Study of Adult Development, the longest scientific study of happiness ever conducted, show that the answer to these questions may be closer than you realize.

The voices just didn't click with me, but heard high praise of book; got no time to actually read it, so listen to it I did.
Pushed speed to 1.3x, listening became tolerable.
After an hour or so I got used to performance, contents captivating, logical flow and presentation are good quality.
Life without knowing of these things is life with important handicap....

Historia3 out of 5 stars 18
Beginning with the Roman army's first recorded encounter with the Gauls and ending in the era of Emmanuel Macron, France takes listeners on an endlessly entertaining journey through French history. Robb conveys with wit and precision what it felt like to look over the shoulder of a young Louis XIV as he planned the vast garden of Versailles, and the dangerous thrill of having a seat at the French revolution. Some of the protagonists may be familiar, but appear here in a very different light—Caesar, Charlemagne, Louis XIV, Napoleon Bonaparte, General Charles de Gaulle.

Brilliant storytelling
Revisado: 12-26-22
Superbly layered, lots of quality learning; well balanced look at deep core samples and fair, insightful critique of more recent events; narrator could've done better by the French within.

Over the course of a 30-year career, Eddie Izzard has proven himself to be a creative chameleon, inhabiting the stage and film and television screens with an unbelievable fervor. Born in Yemen and raised in Ireland, Wales, and postwar England, he lost his mother at the age of six. In his teens he dropped out of university and took to the streets of London as part of a two-man escape act; when his partner went on vacation, Izzard kept busy by inventing a one-man act, and thus a career was ignited.

humanity at its trying best
Revisado: 03-03-22
Brilliant. Warm. New Testament to hope, humanity at its trying best. Excellent "read" (listen), even more so given ongoing war on humankind.

Unedited pile of recordings
Revisado: 10-07-21
Lacks attention from simple editing work. Contains unclipped serial takes, ends up sounding like parrot recital. Also, in common with all other in the series, it lacks any chapter labels on the timeline, going back to a certain story, or finding any in particular in the first place, is not possible.
