Genialny lektor

Revisado: 08-01-24

Pan Henryk Drugalski jest najlepszym polskim lektorem jakiegosłuchaļam do tej pory. Historia Sienkiewicza wydaje mi się autobiograficzna, i jest świetnie napisana i bardzo zajmująca. Po lekturze tej jest oczywistym że Sienkiewicz czerpał garściami z własnego życia pisząc Trylogię. Pan Drygalski swoją interpretacją zrobił z tej książki arcydzieło. Šmiaļam się w głos, płakałam i głęboko zamyślaļam słuchając. Bardzo dziękuję za fantastyczną robotę👏👏👏👏

Świetna ksiażka

Prus wykazał się swietnym psychologiem I obserwatorem kobiet. Piękne obrazy kobiet może czasami trochę szablonowe… najbardziej zaimponował mi portret Pani Latte. Dobra literatura na wakacje.

Neville Jason: Supreme narrator

Revisado: 05-24-20

I read the book at least three times before. This is the first time I listened to it. In m opinion, this is one of the best books ever written but I feel inadequate to introduce Tolstoy to others: maybe when I am 70 I will be able to do it. Only upon listening to this rendition, I realized that there are two endings to the book: I am especially grateful for the second one, which is actually a series of lectures on history, humanism, free will, and God.
BUT: I decided to write a review because of the narrator. I am lacking words to describe the onomatopoeic abilities of Neville Jason. Whether singing of the Orthodox monks, howling of a wolf, crying of a girl, knelling of a bell, or imitating foreign accents, he got that completely covered. This is my 30 books on Audible and he is the best lector by far. Actually, I broke my rules (searching by authors) and looked up other books Jason recorded. "War and Peace" is difficult to read: sentences, phrases, names, places in French, German, Russian and Polish dot the entire book. Jason's French is superb, German very good, Russian, and Polish good enough to understand the meaning of the words (I am Polish and sensitive to Slavic dialects).
Listening to this book I was completely submerged into the story simply because the narrator reads the story from within, with an immense emotional engagement (which many lectors lack). In consequence, you feel like you are inside the story, on the battlefield of Borodino, or in count's Bezuhov palace. I can hardly imagine a better rendition of the book by one person. It feel like it is more than an audiobook... almost a theater production.

Informative and inspiring

Revisado: 01-31-20

I was Born in Poland in 1968 thus I know many details of the book first hand but only from the polish point of view. The canvas on which the book is written is very broad and researched in details. I was amazed to learned all the facts regarding other Eastern European countries, 20-century papacy and Reagan. The connections the author makes between the historical facts and the Divine interventions are amazing. In the end I find myself deeply moved and inspired. I recommend this book to any Pole especially to those who think they know the story.
