Publisher's Summary
Faust has long been considered one of the most important works of European literature ever published. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe began writing Faust in the 1770s while still a young man, spending most of his adult life on the project. Faust was finally finished almost 50 years later, near the end of his life.
Faust is a philosophical drama full of humor, satire, and tragedy. In Part 1, the demon Mephistopheles makes a bet with God that he can lure Faust from the path of good. Faust is in the middle of a personal crisis when he is visited by the demon. Mephistopheles successfully lures Faust into putting his soul on the line for a chance at true happiness but the deal only leads to tragedy.
In Part 2, the tragedy has faded and Faust now finds himself on a new path of adventure as he strives to redeem himself and is eventually released from his evil pact with the demon.

Probably better in book form
Good performance, Many a bit slower to accommodate the dense prose.
Hard to follow in audio format.
Great story and translation.

LUDICROUS SPEED READING GO!? reading is far too rapidly paced.
Within the first 5 chapters i had already been forced to slow the player down to 6x speed and even the was not sufficient. There is no noticeable break or transitions between characters, so the entire thing feels mashed together into a run on sentence. There are no voice changes to distinguish them either. On tape of that the narrator seems to be in a race to finish this as fast as possible.
