À propos de cet audio
Ernest Hemingway did more to change the style of English prose than any other writer in the 20th century, and for his efforts he was awarded the Nobel Prize for literature in 1954. Hemingway wrote in short, declarative sentences and was known for his tough, terse prose. Publication of The Sun Also Rises and A Farewell to Arms immediately established Ernest Hemingway as one of the greatest literary lights of the 20th century.
As part of the expatriate community in 1920s Paris, the former journalist and World War I ambulance driver began a career that lead to international fame. Hemingway was an aficionado of bullfighting and big-game hunting, and his main protagonists were always men and women of courage and conviction who suffered unseen scars, both physical and emotional. He covered the Spanish Civil War, portraying it in fiction in his brilliant novel For Whom the Bell Tolls, and he subsequently covered World War II. His classic novella The Old Man and the Sea won the Pulitzer Prize in 1953. He died in 1961.

I found it somewhat morbid.
Not that there is anything wrong with that, I found the accumulation of misery culminating the way it did to be disturbing but, nonetheless, an interesting if not gripping read. Also, and I'm not sure if this dissappoints me, but there seems to be a recurring thread in Hemingways books. The ones I have read anyway. Thought the narrator and overall presentation was outstanding.

Brilliant
Simply fantastic. Hemingway is still the genius of his time. I’m going into my next Hemingway two books from now.

My first experience with audio books and I really enjoyed listening during long drives. Loved the book, felt so sorry when it ended. Narrator's voice and interpretation excellent! I will look for more audio books for sure.
