Description
As survival becomes her sole motivation, Anna takes up the occupation of scavenger, searching for objects from the past which she then sells for food and shelter. But even in this landscape of devastation, her humanity prevails as she finds friendship, love and even some hope for the future. In the Country of Last Things reaffirms the singular gifts of Paul Auster.
Ce que les critiques en disent
"Vanessa Redgrave is not so much an actress as a force of nature…. Here she reins it in to deliver an appropriately detached portrayal of a sheltered young Jewess cast on her own devices in a nightmarish world of terror and entropy. While playing against the unremitting horror of the first-person narration, she vividly impersonates the characters in dialogue scenes.” (AudioFile)
“Auster's, one of the best, is distinguished by an uncanny grasp of the day-to-day realities of homelessness. This is a scary but highly relevant book.” (Library Journal)
“[Auster] creates a tone that deftly combines matter-of-factness and estrangement.” (Publishers Weekly)

Had to read this for school audio saved the day
The narrator did a pretty good job with different voices for different characters. The book itself was very hard to finish and I probably wouldn't have if not for this audio.
