Try the version read by Stefan Rudnicki

Revisado: 03-05-24

This version is adequate and I don't wish to be overly critical, but the voice employed by the narrator does not seem to fit the time and place where the story is set. I think the version offered by Audible read by Stefan Runicki is essentially perfect, and this version is just okay. Give the other one a try before selecting this one.

incompetent use (misuse) of chapter/track marks

Revisado: 02-26-24

Good stories and narration, but the audio technician/production engineer got the brilliant idea to omit creating individual tracks for each chapter, leaving us with only four absurdly long tracks, each for one story, even though these stories each had many individual chapters. Apparently this same audio technician thought it was a good idea to have 0.000 seconds of silence between each story. so the story ends and the next story has begun immediately. you don't get 3 seconds. you don't get two seconds, you don't get one second, you don't get ½ a second or even GOD FORBID ⅛ of a second a silence between each story. Whoever did this just did not understand their job in the least.

Inappropriate Narration

Revisado: 08-13-23

I wish more of the reviews here had mentioned the genuinely "odd" narration. I don't want to be unkind, but do yourself a favor and listen to a sample before buying this audiobook. if you make it through the sample, you can probably tolerate this man's voice. Personally, I cannot.

Completely Fu#king Unacceptable

Revisado: 01-20-23

I bought this audio book on audible 8 or 10 years ago and it was narrated by the author. The narration was good And it was one of my all time favorite audio books out of several 100.

Then, without announcing they had done so, Audible removed that paid audio book from my collection and replaced it with this piece of absolute garbage.

Reader ruined the part of Piglet

Revisado: 12-24-22

Along with a lot of the other reviews I have read, I am going to have to express my deep displeasure and disapproval of Mr. Dennis choosing to insert an inappropriate and uncalled for snorting/farting noise at the end of every statement made by the Piglet character. There was nothing whatsoever in the author's text to suggest this type of annoying stupidity. It completely ruins the entire production. There is no way in the world that the current 4.6/5 overall rating for this audiobook is an accurate reflection of the product.

disappointing

Revisado: 11-28-22

I have purchased and generally enjoyed close to a dozen books about Trump, who I utterly and completely despise. generally, any book which trashes the filthy idiot which is the former president, I tend to give that book a favorable opinion. not so with this one. it is just plain boring and it is just an absolutely hash of everything we have already heard a million times before.

hyper-enunciation gets old

Revisado: 04-12-22

I like the story and writing, but the narrator seems to think it is very proper to enunciate in an exagerated and forced way. He even does it for BOTH characters during dialog. In real life, no one hyper- enunciates like this guy, and it is tough in my ears. Very distracting and utterly misguided, but maybe he thinks it is " professional ".

It Seems to Work.

Revisado: 04-04-22

I dislike the verbiage used in this presentation, and concur with many of the criticisms expressed here by others, but this has worked for getting me to sleep where other audio efforts have not. Annoying but well worth a try...

Never Evolved

Revisado: 03-07-22

I had the dubious luxury of listening to this entire audiobook in one sitting on a very long drive. It seems like Thomas McGuane is drawn to narratives of a particular type of romatic conquest, and he provides example after example of this here. After the 4th or 5th example I began to grow weary. By the ninth example, I was fed up. this audiobook has successfully cured me of my interest in the writing of Thomas McGuane.

Be Warned

Revisado: 12-09-21

The majority of reviews posted here seem to be fake reviews- posted by phony accounts and upvoted by other phony accounts in an effort to make this audiobook seem better than it is. Other titles by this production company have similarly been given phony good reviews. Buy this or not as you see fit, but to base your purchase on phony good reviews is a mistake. I cannot recommend this product, and I can flatly condem the fake reviews.
