Acerca de esta escucha

A collection of 17 wonderful short stories showing that two-time Oscar winner Tom Hanks is as talented a writer as he is an actor.

A gentle Eastern European immigrant arrives in New York City after his family and his life have been torn apart by his country's civil war. A man who loves to bowl rolls a perfect game - and then another and then another and then many more in a row until he winds up ESPN's newest celebrity, and he must decide if the combination of perfection and celebrity has ruined the thing he loves. An eccentric billionaire and his faithful executive assistant venture into America looking for acquisitions and discover a down and out motel, romance, and a bit of real life. These are just some of the tales Tom Hanks tells in this first collection of his short stories. They are surprising, intelligent, heartwarming, and, for the millions and millions of Tom Hanks fans, an absolute must-have!

Featuring additional performances by Peter Gerety, Peter Scolari, Cecily Strong, Holland Taylor, and Wilmer Valderrama on "Stay with Us".

Reseñas de la Crítica

"The stories are wide ranging, at times funny, bizarre, and poignant - but the real draw is Hanks himself. As expected, his performance is charismatic. His strengths shine in male characters, especially curious boys and men in conversation. He regularly plays with accents, making memorable a couple of recurring characters. The final story, a screenplay, offers a special treat - a full cast of his friends performing along with him." (AudioFile)

I loved 98% of the stories and a couple of stories I wished didn't end.

Disappointed with the language, I guess I expected something different from Tom Hanks.

Two points, first as I already expressed, I was disappointed with the language in several of the stories.
Second, I prefer a story with an ending.

Left me wanting more

I enjoyed the varied characters. I wished some of the stories were longer so I could have known them longer.

Brought a smile to my face

It was nice to hear uplifting stories being read by someone with so much talent. The stories are fun, uplifting and thought provoking.

Enjoyable

this was an excellent series of short stories. Having it read by the author was even more enjoyable. I liked each story and subtle way he would sneak a reference to a type writer in. Really good.

Great stories and narration

Enjoyed Tom Hanks’ clever stories and familiar voice. Highly recommended. Wish some of the stories were longer!

Most stories were very interesting.

A couple of the stories were not great, but the rest left me wanting to know what was next, which the author leaves you to wonder. Great work and narration, Mr. Hanks!

Tom Hanks Can Do No Wrong!

Let me start this by saying that I am already a big Tom Hanks fan. I've really enjoyed him in every performance I've seen, however I was a little hesitant when I saw that he had published a collection of short stories. Can he really act AND write?? The answer to that is YES! I thoroughly enjoyed each and every one of his stories and often found myself smiling along while I listened. And OF COURSE T. Hanks is an AWESOME narrator too! I wish Audible would have him narrate more!
