Acerca de esta escucha

The best American novel to emerge from World War I, A Farewell to Arms is the unforgettable story of an American ambulance driver on the Italian front and his passion for a beautiful English nurse.

Hemingway's frank portrayal of the love between Lieutenant Henry and Catherine Barkley, caught in the inexorable sweep of war, glows with an intensity unrivaled in modern literature, while his description of the German attack on Caporetto, of lines of fired men marching in the rain, hungry, weary, and demoralized, is one of the greatest moments in literary history.

A story of love and pain, of loyalty and desertion, A Farewell to Arms, written when he was 30 years old, represents a new romanticism for Hemingway.

John Slattery did an excellent job in narrating the book. I had read "The Modern Scholar: WW1" by John Ramsden and he Listed "A Farewell To Arms" on the reading list and said it covered the fighting between Italy and Austria in WWI. But I was disappointed because there was very little information about the war and was primarily a love story. I am not sure why Ramsden list this book on his reading list. I have enjoyed other Hemingway book so maybe my disappointment was in my expectations.

I liked the reader. He didn't drone me to sleep. It was very easy to listen along and he read at just the right pace. And his voice isn't obnoxious.

Narrator was excellent. HEMINGWAY'S classic profound metaphor of WWI told in narrators voice about his one true love, Kat.

Great story until the end. The ending was greatly dragged out and boring, with much of it degrading the emotional ending.

Good until the end.

To say the story is good seems a superfluous waste: I mean, it's Hemingway at his best. Duh.
What blew me away was the narrator. John Slattery nails it: American accents, English accents, Italian accents, males, females -- unreal. At times, it was difficult to believe this is all one person.

Great novel; spectacular narrator

I hesitate to attempt a review of such a classic work. I shall only say that after listening to this book I attempted to speak for an entire day without using a contraction or passive voice. It was enlightening.

You will speak differently for days.
