Une bonne traduction et une lectrice douée. I previously read the English version of this audiobook, and this French version is just as good. :-)

DELIGHTFUL!

Revisado: 10-22-24

I feel so grateful for this memoir! I have always admired Mr. Pacino's work and to have the opportunity to listen to him talk about his life was wonderful. This book is intimate, thoughtful and often funny like you're sitting with Mr. Pacino and he's just extemporizing about his experiences. Really enjoyable.

Absolutely superb.

Revisado: 07-19-24

This author is amazing. Characters fully developed, stupendous plots with lots of twists and a talent for storytelling that is remarkable. I was sad when this book ended; I wanted it to continue on and on. So emotional, so rich, so absolutely absorbing! Treat yourself to this superb novel.

I love Frank Muller's narration!

Revisado: 04-22-24

Mr. Muller is an entertaining, unrivaled talent, and he completely inhabits this engrossing tale. He has the perfect tone and fluency for King's work (see, e.g., his reading of The Drawing of the Three, book 2 of the Dark Tower series). The Talisman is well written and I didn't mind King's occasional tail-chasing during efforts to perfectly express his plot weirdnesses. Well worth a credit. (Right here and now! Wolf.)

So layered!

Revisado: 10-15-23

A masterfully crafted spiderweb of a plot. The mystery unfoldss revelation by revelation by revelation, like peeling an onion from its outside down to its core. Great story, well narrated.

Very good

Thank you, Mr. King, for rediscovering, resurrecting and revising this “trunk novel.“ A good story and a touching homage to Steinbeck‘s Lenny and George. I especially enjoyed your introduction, which put this work in context.

Terrific story and narration

Revisado: 09-02-23

Wow! Best yet in a great series. Complex and interesting characters and plot. I could not put this one down and can’t wait to download the next one in this series.

Intolerable narration

Revisado: 07-19-23

I was really looking forward to this book, as I have thoroughly enjoyed the entire series up to this point. I just could not stand this narrator. Now, please understand that I am not unusually hard on narrators, and if they’re competent, I am usually sufficiently satisfied, though I have my favorites, of course. my problem with Miss McEwan is that in listening to her, she keeps hitting the same note every syllable. Meaning, that if you found the note on a piano, her delivery would be that very note for 95% of the book. Her reading is fluent and otherwise competent, But this particular note, she seems to prefer (an affectation?) steals variety from her reading, and is at such a frequency as to make my ears wish for silence. Maybe I am the only one who notices this, but I was looking at another book I wanted to buy, and noticed that she was the narrator. Wanting to be fair, I listen to the sample. Unfortunately, again, I had the same reaction to her reading. Can’t stand it. The ratings I gave for the overall rating, and for the story are merely because I could not read more than the first hour of the book without wanting to slam it closed. It is likely a wonderful book, but it sorely needs a different narrator.

Imaginative and interesting

Revisado: 06-19-23

Engrossing take on what could have been Hawthorne’s inspiration for The Scarlet Letter. The woman in this audiobook, who becomes Hester in Hawthorne’s work, is fascinating. this is absorbing, plausible fiction. As usual, Ms. Maarleveld narrates well, though her, Scottish accent needs work.

Surprisingly good

Revisado: 06-19-23

I did not know what to expect from this novel. Well, actually, I expected to be unimpressed. I’m so glad I was wrong! This was a very good, well-plotted, and well-structured story. The characters were fully developed and interesting; I cared what happened to them. Plus, this was a great initiation into K-pop and its surrounding culture. I’m glad I got this novel. Well worth the credit.
