À propos de cet audio

Bristling with intelligence and shimmering with romance, this novel tests the boundary between history and myth.

Patrick Lewis arrives in Toronto in the 1920s and earns his living searching for a vanished millionaire and tunneling beneath Lake Ontario. In the course of his adventures, Patrick's life intersects with those of characters who reappear in Ondaatje's Booker Prize-winning The English Patient.

Overall the narrator for this was alright. Not very express but he did have a soothing voice. The actual book though was very difficult to get into and I found it very hard to follow and understand what was really going on. I am a very good visualizer and have no difficulty picturing books as I read. This book on the other hand, I couldn’t get lost in it like other books. I don’t think I would recommend this book, maybe if you’re interested in some Toronto history? But that’s about it.

Boring and hard to follow

I found the story slow and had difficulty keeping my attention to it. That may have been that I didn't care for the narrator. He is a bit monotone... I listened to about 2/3rds and gave up.

Monotone narrator plus author's passive voice equals sleep aid. I couldn't stay awake. Had to read this book for college level class.
